Thanks for the details.
These seem feasible to resolve, eventually.

OpenBSD's localtime appears not to reject outrageously large inputs:

    $ date -d @72057594037927934
    Sat Mar 17 17:24:39 CET 2012
    $ date -d @72057594037927935
    Sat Mar 17 17:24:48 CET 2012
    $ date -d @$(echo 2^64|bc)
    Sat Mar 17 17:26:51 CET 2012
...

If so, this is a job for gnulib: detect and replace the losing function.

These sort tests are very strict.
It'd be nice if someone were to investigate this,
but I probably won't ever get to it.
