#1658 does not interpret time correctly in a set arrow command

[Tatsuro MATSUOKA]

A report came to me concerning set arrow for windows binary of 5.1.0 (ChangeLog 2015-07-15)
It seems that gnuplot does not interpret time correctly in a set arrow command.

set xdata time
set timefmt "%m/%d/%y"
set xrange ["03/12/04":"01/20/05"]
set yrange [842.6:845.6]
set timefmt "%m/%d/%y %H:%M"
set arrow 2 from "03/12/04 00:00", 844.792 to "01/20/05 00:00", 844.792 nohead lt 0
show arrow 2

For 5.1.0 (ChangeLog 2015-07-15)(Native windows, cygwin, ubuntu)
gnuplot> show arrow 2

    arrow 2, nohead nofilled back lt 0 linewidth 1.000 dashtype solid
      from ("01/01/70 00:00", 844.792, 0.00000) to ("01/01/70 00:00", 844.792, 0.00000)

For 5.0.1 windows,
gnuplot> show arrow 2

    arrow 2, nohead nofilled back lt 0 linewidth 1.000 dashtype solid
      from ("03/12/04 00:00", 844.792, 0.00000) to ("01/20/05 00:00", 844.792, 0.00000)

The phenomena seem to be platform independent.
