On Solaris 7:
$ date -r 1003723200
date: illegal option -- r
usage: date [-u] mmddHHMM[[cc]yy][.SS]
date [-u] [+format]
date -a [-]sss[.fff]
On Digital Unix 4.0F:
$ date -r 1003723200
date: illegal option -- r
Usage: date [-u] [+field descriptors]
On Red Hat Linux 7.1:
$ date -r 1003723200
date: 1003723200: No such file or directory
But perl works on all three. :-)
