[Remind-Fans] FROM not working for dates before 1990

Hello,

Whenever I am using a reminder that has a FROM keyword with a date
before 1990, I keep getting this error:

    FROM: Incomplete date specification

Use case:

    FSET _since(yr) YEAR(TRIGDATE()) - yr
    REM 21 Dec FROM 21 Dec 1989 MSG Joe's [ord(_since(1988))] birthday

As I get it, 1990 is internally the "base year" for remind.  Is it
feasibly possible to change this to an earlier year—without breaking
other parts of the application?  After all, there is probably a
well-thought of reason why it has been set to 1990.

Cheers,  
Clemens
