Though.. that value even though way in future is still valid, right? It
just happens that  (encode-time 0 0 0 21 12 2100) returns that 2 element
time list.

Is the issue with:
- time list having 2 elements?
- year being 2100?
- Or the delta between that fake `current-time' and real current-time too
big?

I am on RHEL 6.8.
