Thanks to everyone who responded to this. Most pointed out that the
answer is 6 months, and is given in:
man ls
Other very useful info from CBee:
...It also states that if timestamps are in the future (even 1 second ahead)
it is also in 'year' notation. I've seen this with nfs-mounts between
machines that had no time-sync with ntp or such.
By the way, it is display only. the timestamp on the filesystem is in epoc
(seconds since 00:00 1-1-1970) at least on most filesystems...
And from Andy Cranston:
...What I do have is a little program called lsdate which lists the
modification time of files in a consistent format such as:
2001/02/04 18:15:18 bin
2002/01/13 03:46:26 boot
2002/04/23 19:27:46 dev
2002/01/13 07:27:08 etc
2001/12/30 20:09:41 home
Note that you also get the modification time down to the second - not just
the nearest minute.
I called this program "lsdate" and you can find it here:

Just compile the source as follows:
cc -o lsdate lsdate.c
