Description rockeychu 2010-06-10 13:18:39 UTC
A bug introduced by commit 6c2406ac861f42536acb76606c90412324a0e733 (http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox-cvs/2010-June/031293.html), which caused "date" to get invalid date time, if FEATURE_DATE_NANO not set.

A resolved patch as following:

diff --git a/coreutils/date.c b/coreutils/date.c
