I wonder how many things would have to be patched in System 6 to change its epoch to match Unix's, extending the system time and HFS dates another 64 years beyond 2040
I'm not sure why Apple decided to make a thing that came out in 1984 decide to start counting from 1900... I get the filesystem needing to be able to manage files that were theoretically created before it, but 84 years before it?
