In Emacs 27 this produces

  (0 0 14 nil nil nil nil -1 nil)

which I think is reasonable.

This produces

  (56 24 16 25 3 2016 5 -1 3600)

with Emacs 27.

I get

  (nil nil nil nil nil nil nil -1 nil)

So I think this is already fixed in the development sources, and you
are advised to upgrade to Emacs 27 (its pretest is available from
alpha.gnu.org).

Thanks.
