This is one that I'm unlikely to be able to help with, since I
don't have Cygwin or in fact Windows here.

Is that the full output from this test?  It seems that there
should be some header lines that you did not include.  The number
16149635811 appears several times in the datetime.out output, so
it's somewhat difficult to guess what's going on without the full
context.

It would actually be perfect if you could capture the full output
of "make check" and mail it to the list.
