[Xymon] disable requests not staying in place

Here's an example to describe what Paul & I are seeing on our Xymon
server.  Not only will the time-bound disables not stay in place, but
the "disabled until" date seems to be a moving target!

Example:

- I disabled a test that was red at Nov. 16 11:02 CST for 1 hour, and
the status page said "Disabled until Fri Nov 16 11:02:54 2012".  So
that all looks fine.
- I checked the status page a little bit later, and it said "Disabled
until Sun Nov 18 17:58:06 2012".
- Yet a little while later, the status page said "Disabled until Thu
Apr 4 21:15:03 2013".
- Wait a little more, and it said "Disabled until Fri Oct 12 09:14:06 2035"

Eventually, the status page will say something crazy like "Disabled
until Fri Feb 17 18:40:58 1939", and then the color will turn to red
again.

Has anyone else ever seen this behavior?

Thanks,
Ray
