That's me, the patch try to simplify a time conversion, the original code was using DOS<->unix<->squeakDate conversions, instead I added squeakToDosTime: and dosToSqueakTime: to convert DOS<->squeakDate, because the unix conversion fails with certain dates like 29/Feb/2000 (a 2K bug).
I think you are seeing another bug, I can't test in this moment in my mac because I am seeing another bug(s), one with a .DS_STORE entry (an apple hidden directory) and another when I try to add a directory using the button I have a 'subscript is out of bounds: 0' error, this because any directory have a modification date of 0.
