I think that reasoning is flawed. If the firmware supports large year 
values, then fine. The firmware interface is another story.

If you are simply trying to get rid of the old API, I think you should 
just say that.

Does this conversion assume that current_time is always positive? I don't 
have a problem with that (the existing code seems to fail otherwise) but 
maybe it should be mentioned in the commit log.

These IPS_ time macros are all unused after this patch except 
IPS_SECS_8HOURS so the definitions should probably be removed.

That looks wrong to me. If tm_year is in units of years not centuries, 
shouldn't that be,

	scb->cmd.ffdc.yearH  = tm.tm_year / 100 + 19;
