Yes.  I've found and fixed one problem, with the result that we now
get 34 rather than 4.  But it's still wrong, because of confusion
about whether the fields in the date record should be 0-based or
1-based.

Does anyone know what the design is here (0-based or 1-based)?

(Perhaps the srfi-19 document says; I'm offline at the moment, so I
can't check.)
