    Problem Text
    We believe that there are test errors.

    The problem is that these tests use the year 1999 to cause the
    date to be assigned and these tests work fine when executed in years
    prior to 1999, but fail when executed within the year 1999.

    Below are possible fixes for these failures. The below changes were
    made and the tests were re-run and passed.

    POSIX.cmd/pax/pax.ex{131}
    =========================
    From:
    -----
    touch -mt 199901010000 test_file1.in >/dev/null 2>/dev/null || RC=$?

    To:
    ---
    touch -mt 200001010000 test_file1.in >/dev/null 2>/dev/null || RC=$?

    POSIX.cmd/pax/pax.ex{132}
    =========================
    From:
    -----
    # Change date to 1999
    touch -mt 199901010000 test_file1.in >/dev/null 2>&1
    if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "Command failed: 'touch -mt 199901010000 test_file1.in >/dev/null 2>&1'"
