I see what's going on.
You have the original Evtlog. That time stamp is from the logger, not FAL (it generates
the event but the OS puts on the timestamp and evtlog processes it). The 2034 date is
what evtlog as shipped would do. The patched version I created fixes it for dates after
2003. But the fix is incomplete, it fails to handle Julian halfdate values with the upper
bit set.

FAL says "27-Oct-34", show date
looks correct (assuming not 1921).

I wonder if the copy of DECnet I have is from
before some patches that fix some of these issues.

No such errors on 31.28 (RST101) either.

Subject: Re: [HECnet] RSTS/E started emitting "?EVTLOG (BLDNIC) -- %Integer
error" messages
Paul Koning is working on a fix.
The RSTS/E DECnet event logger has an integer overflow too. He said in a e-mail to me -
? I think I found the problem, yes it's a signed overflow. The "julian
halfdays" used in the event log timestamp overflows on 10-Nov-2021. I fixed an
unsigned issue in the INPUT to the function that converts RSTS date to julian halfday, but
I didn't notice the unsigned issue in the formula for the output.?
