bsd(at)freebsd:~ $ locale
LANG=C.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="C.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="C.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="C.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="C.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="C.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="C.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

bsd(at)freebsd:~ $ tclsh8.6
% clock scan "1/26/2010"
time value too large/small to represent

However, I wonder if there's something wrong with tcl itself,
considering this:

% clock format 1360558800 -format %D
02/11/2013
% clock scan 02/11/2013 -format %D
time value too large/small to represent

That's a bit strange - it seems tcl can format a timestamp, but then
can't read it back in for some reason ...
