Subject: date: recognize bogus FreeBSD gmtime output
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Most gmtime implementations return a NULL value when they
encounter an error (and this behavior is specified by ANSI C
and POSIX).  FreeBSD's implementation, however, will simply
leave the "struct tm" untouched.  Let's also recognize this
and convert it to a NULL (with this patch, t4212 should pass
on FreeBSD).
