The original "TimeServ" program, which synchronizes the PC clock with the 
Amiga's system time has a year-2000-bug: If the year is greater than 1999 
it will be sent to the PC as "191xx" with "xx" being the last digits of 
the year. For example, the year 2001 will be sent as "19101" and be 
interpreted as "1910" by taking the first digits.

The program (on the Amiga's side) takes the four-digit year and subtracts 
1900. The result is printed with the "printf" parameter "19%2d". These 
are the things I have changed in the patch: Now the subtraction is set 
to 0 and the "printf" format is changed to "%0004d" (to keep the same 
length - I have no source code!). This works fine with my Sidecar, but
shall also work with the BridgeBoard.
