After reading the mktime man page, I take that back --- it's not supposed to consider the passed-in values of the tm_wday and tm_yday fields. The only documented reason for mktime to fail is if the supplied values map to something outside the range of time_t, which seems a tad unlikely. It'd be interesting perhaps to see the raw header of your dump file, along the lines of "od -c dumpfile | head". regards, tom lane
