[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Severity: minor
Tags: patch

I think the function `iso8601-parse-time' may be giving questionable
output when fed a string containing fractional seconds.

  (car (iso8601-parse-time "10:20:30.000001" t))
    ⇒ (301 . 10)

  ;; (30000001 . 1000000) ; expected

I've attempted a fix by taking the dumbest possible route, but it may be
too dumb for the likes of Emacs (or just plain wrong). If that's the
case, please forgive. Thanks.

:-)

It was almost perfect -- but didn't handle the case of trailing zeroes
correctly.  That is, it would give different results for these two:

(iso8601-parse-time "10:20:30.000001" t)
(iso8601-parse-time "10:20:30.000001000" t)

I've now pushed a fix based on your patch to Emacs 28.
