Thanks.  I wasn't sure about the error message returned when times are
outside range; how about this instead?  I'm not wedded to this approach
-- I can return to yours if this one isn't liked -- but I think the
more specific messages are better.  I realize this is inconsistent with
the make_date case which always displays the full date instead of
specific fields, but I think it's more likely that someone is doing
arithmetic to enter time fields than date.  (Anyway maybe this is not an
important enough issue to create more work for translators.)

Other than that (and fixing regression tests as appropriate), I think
the attached, which has mild corrections over your v5, is ready to
commit.  (You had one missing semicolon in the float timestamp case.)
