here the bugfix for the error reports filtered by faxcron:
******* original function acc from line 185 

function acct(dest, status, datetime, commid)
{
    split(datetime, a, " ");
    split(a[1], b, "/");
    t = b[3] b[1] b[2] a[2];
    if (t < LASTt)
	return;
    status = cleanup(status);

******* change this to:

function acct(dest, status, datetime, commid)
{
    split(datetime, a, " ");
    split(a[1], b, "/");
    if (b[3] < 80)
	b[3] += 100;
    else
        b[3] = 0 b[3];	
    split(a[2], ccc, ":");
    t = b[3] b[1] b[2] ccc[1] ccc[2];
    if (t < LASTt)
	return;
    status = cleanup(status);

and change in the "main"-programm the lines from line 250
******* original follows:
		  months["11"] = "Nov"; months["12"] = "Dec";

		  split(LASTRUN, a, " ");
		  split(a[1], b, "/");
		  LASTt = b[3] b[1] b[2] a[2];
		  setupToLower();
		}

****** change to:
		  months["11"] = "Nov"; months["12"] = "Dec";

		  split(LASTRUN, a, " ");
		  split(a[1], b, "/");
		  if (b[3] < 80)
		      b[3] += 100;
		  else
		      b[3] = 0 b[3];
		      
		  split(a[2], ccc, ":");
		  LASTt = b[3] b[1] b[2] ccc[1] ccc[2];
		  setupToLower();
		}

that's all. Now it will work.
