[Haskell-cafe] bug in time libs?

[Jason Dusek]

  I'm on 6.10.1, using the libs provided with the binary of GHC
  for Mac OS X. I was fooling around with the time package in
  GHCi and something seems to be off. I have included a
  transcript.

  If I take a time diff, then the seconds are positive when the
  picos are negative and vice versa.
