I'm not sure what you were going for here, but this isn't right. Times
as early as 2036 will be considered invalid.

	   ^^^^^
	An extra minus.

Are the new spaces intentional?

Same as before, 2036-2040 will be invalid.


For the record, your original solution (supporting the 1970-2106 range)
still makes more sense to me. It seems Apple is not using the 1904-1970
range for anything; if they are still supporting hfsplus by the 2030s I
assume they will deal with this in a similar way.

Thanks,
Ernest
