            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as an RFC

            <quote><literal>P1Y2M3DT4H5M6S</literal></quote> meaning

            one year, two months, three days, four hours, five

            The <replaceable>TIME</replaceable> is specified as a
 
339
            space-separated number of values, each of which is a

            number and a one-character suffix.  The suffix must be one

            of <quote>d</quote>, <quote>s</quote>, <quote>m</quote>,
 
342
            <quote>h</quote>, and <quote>w</quote> for days, seconds,
 
343
            minutes, hours, and weeks, respectively.  The values are
 
344
            added together to give the total time value, so all of

            <quote><literal>110s 110s 110s</literal></quote>, and
