[misterhouse-users] Windows/set the clock

[Clive F. <sc...@fi...>]

Strange problem.  A few days ago I upgraded to Perl 5.8.  Since then I have
had an intermittent problem (using Win XP Pro) with 'system("time
$time_now")' in bin/set_clock.  It works about one time in 10 (with rc=256),
but the rest of the time I get this:

63 second difference.  System clock NOT adjusted due to time command error.
rc=768.

If I try to change the time in a DOS window it works fine every time.  It
worked fine every time in Perl 5.6.
