I suggest to decode it in GMT then.
Like this it's not possible to guess it's a "time" value, and hence that
it's an *old* error. I thought it was a pointer to something, and so I
thought the error was happening now, or more likely (since it was
triggered after 300 seconds) that it was some inconsistency in the
filesystem being detected now, in some kind of lazy check.
