 *** Calc by default now uses the Gregorian calendar for all dates, and
 uses January 1, 1 AD as its day number 1.  Previously Calc used the
 Julian calendar for dates before September 14, 1752, and it used
 December 31, 1 BC as its day number 1; the new scheme is more
 consistent with Calendar's calendrical system and day numbering.
