Provides routines that take the time and return the
number of seconds elapsed between January 1, 1970 and the specified
time. The arguments are defined like the corresponding arguments
returned by Perl’s gmtime and
localtime functions and the results
agree with the results of those functions. Exports two functions; both
return -1 if the integer limit is
hit. On most machines, this applies to dates after January 1,
2038.
