ah..

Maybe it's a FreeBSD bug -_-!

I diged a little deeper, and findout that the 'ls -l' output something
wrong. At least it didn't work as the manual pages described.

The ls FreeBSD manual page says:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
   The Long Format
     If the -l option is given, the following information is displayed for
     each file: file mode, number of links, owner name, group name, MAC label,
     number of bytes in the file, abbreviated month, day-of-month file was
     last modified, hour file last modified, minute file last modified, and
     the pathname.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But the 'ls -l' actully output like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[fktpp at localhost /usr/home/fktpp]$ ls -l
total 36
drwxr-xr-x   4 fktpp  users    512  3 30  2007 GNUstep
drwx------   4 fktpp  users    512  3 31  2007 Mail
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Note the 6th column is not *abbreviated month*, it's month-of-year.
