Summary 03468: mjmyornt: [possible] various issues regarding the calendar
Description I have discovered a number of interesting issues regarding the calendar in mjmyornt.

This is an interesting and beautiful calendar. It shows dates according to both the modern and traditional Japanese calendar.

Attached is a ZIP file containing two dozen snapshots from the calendar. I used a utility to lie to MAME about the system date so as to obtain these. Please verify the following issues:

1) The English month is displayed incorrectly for October through December.
2) The calendar is not Y2K compatible. (The 190x dates are really supposed to be 200x.)
3) The "kyuureki" calendar dates are correct for 1992 through 1999 inclusive. For other years, it seems an 8-year loop is used: 1999 is used for 1991, 1996 is used for 1900, etc.

As the calendar is apparently correct for the years 1992 and 1993, as well as a copyright date of 1992 appearing in the attract loop, I wonder if MAWS has the wrong year for the game (MAWS has 1994).

Once I set the clock year 2000 and go back to the game, the calendar shows "2009". I uploaded a screenshot.
The actual old calendar date of 2009 Oct 9 is Aug 21, but the date in the shot is of 1993.

Maybe 2) and 3) are original issues. I think we need confirmation with the real pcb.
