[Mono-list] System.DateTime.FromOADate

[Sebastien Pouliot]

Hello Bernhard,

Before changing everything I suggest that you invest a little time to
debug the issue you have with Indy/Mono.

As stated in bug #333700 the issue isn't in DateTime.FromOADate (the
supplied value is out of range). However if this works on Windows then
we can assume there is *a* bug somewhere (and probably close).

My personal guess is that happens during parsing the date string...
