Storm in a teacup. It's (pretty much) just a matter of increasing the number of bits in the epoch-counter, and a recompile.<p>In fact, just adding ONE more bit to the epoch-counter would put off any problems for another 68 years. TWO extra bits and it delays any problems for another 200 years at least.<p><i>Doubling</i> the number of bits (32 to 64) puts off the problem for MILLIONS of years.<p>[And I don't think that humans will still be around by then.]
