<Just fixing Y2K legacy code at higher levels (Cobol as an example) for customers must be a nightmare.>

There's a company in my town full of Ph.D.s who have a system for
automatically detecting and fixing Y2K bugs. Their main
problem is not in finding where the bugs are, nor how to fix
them. Their main problem is that the old compilers no longer
exist, so they cannot regenerate the fixed executable code.
