This works in Alpha X, but not in Alpha 7 (returns error). OTOH,

   tclAE::build::resultData 'ALFA' syso "GMT "

works in Alpha 7 (at least under OS X), but not in Alpha X (nothing happens
for a long while, and then there is an "Error: AESend failed: OSErr -1712").

Yeah, I had a vague recollection that something like that had been
mentioned on this list earlier.

I actually just wanted the timestamps to be correct (not claiming e.g.
20:00 UTC (\approx GMT), when it's really 20:00 CET). I don't think [clock
format] is better in this case; I just used it to demonstrate that the
correct information was somewhere in the system.
