The hour bigit is base 24, of course. And in either case, after the
matrix point {pi} we switch to base ten, with no pi'e separator for
the decimal digits.

The base for the day bigit is a function of the month bigit, and
I don't know what the base for the year bigit is.

Does the official parser handle {li ca gi pa gi re}?
