What is dir aliased to on your system? It looks like it is showing the
time in UTC instead of local time. Times are stored in UTC, and then
converted to local time by programs like ls. The normal dir command on a
6.2 system does not list file times, unless you tell it to, so I don't
think you are using the standard dir command.
