Suns can't tell what the Moon is doing.  I think this may be the
cause of all the bugs which depend on the phase of the moon.

% moonphase
 
        ***  The moon is Waxing Crescent (11% of Full)  ***
% moonphase
 
        ***  The moon is Waning Gibbous (98% of Full)  ***
% moonphase
 
        ***  The moon is Waxing Gibbous (65% of Full)  ***

And the real answer (from another machine) is:
% moonphase
The Moon is Waxing Gibbous (61% of Full)

(If no one is maintaining this program...I'll volunteer to do so
 since I use it all the time.)
