Appears to be a sign error in as.POSIX(lt/ct)

> library("chron")

The following is fine, with default origin.

> tmp <- chron(1:2, origin = c(1,1,1970))
> as.POSIXlt(tmp)
[1] "1970-01-02 01:00:00 GMT" "1970-01-03 01:00:00 GMT"

These are not.

> tmp <- chron(1:2, origin = c(1,1,1960))
> tmp
[1] 01/02/60 01/03/60
> as.POSIXlt(tmp)
[1] "1980-01-03 GMT" "1980-01-04 GMT"

> tmp <- chron(1:2, origin = c(1,1,1990))
> tmp
[1] 01/02/90 01/03/90
> as.POSIXlt(tmp)
[1] "1950-01-02 GMT" "1950-01-03 GMT"
