[cvsnt] cvs rcsfile rcsdiff -r 1.2 -r 1.3 -u gives output with date info that is a month in the past.

Hi All,

Using cvsnt v2.0.58d on linux and executing the following command from 
the commandline in order to simulate what viewcvs used to generate a 
difference between two versions.

cvs rcsfile rcsdiff -r 1.2 -r 1.3 -u /home/cvs/CVSREPOS/test/test.txt,v

gives me a unified diff output with erronous dates.  The month reported 
is one month prior to month that the actual changes took place. Hence 
ViewCVS's display of these dates are a month out.

RCS file:

--- test.txt 2005/01/07 14:17:55     1.3


cvs diff -r 1.2 -r 1.3 -c test.txt
on a sandbox containing a checked out version of text.txt gives
Index: a380_cvs_mirror_cron_job.sh

Can anyone else confirm or deny this?
