Odd timestamp of a AUR package

I just downloaded 'autoconf-compat' from the AUR and it is dated 1969.  Steps to reproduce:

wget --quiet http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/autoconf-compat/autoconf-compat.tar.gz

tar xf autoconf-compat.tar.gz

ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 2 todd todd   4096 1969-12-31 22:41 autoconf-compat

ls -l autoconf-compat
-rw-r--r-- 1 todd todd 990 1970-01-01 03:13 PKGBUILD

Has anyone else seen this?  I thought about filing a bug but if it's only one package I don't think it's worth the time.

Re: Odd timestamp of a AUR package

That is certainly further back compatibility than I expected...
