I would have done this a bit differently, first chek for day, mon, year
then do the calculation as:

	if (set_tm->tm_year != read_tm->tm_year)
		return 1;

	if (set_tm->tm_mon != read_tm->tm_mon)
		return 1;

	if (set_tm->tm_mday != read_tm->tm_mday)
		return 1;

	seconds1 = ....
	seconds2 = ....
	delta = ...

	if (delta < 0 || delta > 3)
		return 1;

	return 0;


I find this a bit clearer to read.
