> In MSHARED-1067 the boundaries have been introduced, but never documented by 
> they actually exist. Reason: MS-DOS time limitation for 2+2 bytes starting 
> from 1980. See ZIP note:
> {quote}
>    4.4.6 date and time fields: (2 bytes each)
>        The date and time are encoded in standard MS-DOS format.
>        If input came from standard input, the date and time are
>        those at which compression was started for this data. 
>        If encrypting the central directory and general purpose bit 
>        flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored in the 
>        Local Header will be zero. MS-DOS time format is different
>        from more commonly used computer time formats such as 
>        UTC. For example, MS-DOS uses year values relative to 1980
>        and 2 second precision.
