I thought there was a known bug in Cygwin 20.1 that the current time is
always returned incorrectly.
I've seen other report it at any rate.

Any hints?

This works for me under cygwin b19.4. I'm quite prepared to believe its a
bug in 20.1. Floating point numbers were broken for most of b19 due to a
bug in atof - so why not ints as well :)
