Last night about 11pm I started the VMS 5.5-2 upgrade on a VAX 6310 running VMS
5.5.  The upgrade finished about 1am this morning by the required "rebooting". 
When the system came back up, the date/time was off by a year!

The very last entry in OPERATOR.LOG;-1 had the right date, and the very first
entry in OPERATOR.LOG;0 was off by a year (1992), so nobody mis-set the date in
the meantime!

I've read somewhere that something similar to this would happen at the turn fo
the year, but this was NOT a "New Year's Eve" problem!
