According to MSDN, time(NULL) returns "the number of seconds elapsed since 
[epoch] according to the system clock". Please don't ask me what "the system 
clock" is.

Reading the implementation of time(), it starts with GetLocalTime(), 
determines whether daylight saving is in effect, and continues with another 
round of timezone adjustment - mind you: _not_ a timezone reversal (!!). 
Doesn't this look extremely bogus?

It seems we really need a wrapper for time().
