 input-time

    OpenVMS usage:vector_word_unsigned
    type:         word (unsigned)
    access:       read only
    mechanism:    by reference, array reference

    Time to be converted. The input-time argument is the address of
    a 7-word structure containing this time. This vector directly
    corresponds to a $NUMTIM timbuf structure.

    The input-time argument can represent an absolute or a delta
    time. In order for input-time to represent a delta time, the year
    since 0 and month of year fields must equal zero. If those fields
    do not equal zero, an absolute time is returned.

 resultant-time

    OpenVMS usage:date_time
    type:         quadword (unsigned)
    access:       write only
    mechanism:    by reference

    The OpenVMS internal format delta or absolute time that results
    from the conversion. The resultant-time argument is the address
    of an unsigned quadword containing the result.
