thanks for the logs.  Was it repeatable reliably with 1.9.8-1 ?  Are you
able to get this to repeat with 1.9.8.1-1 (the version i uploaded to
unstable today)?

I am used to seeing en_US.UTF-8 for LANG, but not en-US.UTF-8.  Are you
setting NSILOCALE_TIME anywhere in your environment?

> For the moment I will revert back to the last working version 2:1.9.7-2.

The line you're getting an error on was definitely changed between 1.9.7
and 1.9.8 (it was changed in 30c1fe69a7c62007f925d760efc832884aed4412,
which overhauls the time calculations).

Maybe upstream (cc'ed here) can shed some light on this?
