any objections to use this approach? If we want to support years after 2105 in the Classic API, then we would need 64-bit values and calculations in several places. I think an RTEMS system which operates after 2105 is currently a bit unrealistic.
If we limit the time frame to the year 2100 we could simplify _TOD_Validate() a bit more since all years % 4 == 0 are leap years in the range 1988 to 2100 (exclusive).
