This is because tlf uses the standard TRlog format... It is not
difficult to convert this into a 4-character format (I think Xlog does
it...). Something like IF year > 50 then year += 1900 ELSE year += 2000

This was done on purpose... you don't want tlf to reread the complete
log every time you make a correction (especially if you have 4000 qso's
in the log).

You can do it manually by :REScore command or by restarting tlf.
At least you can then do it at a time which suits you (during a coffee
break or operator change....)
