Subject: [boost] [DateTime] Cannot handle 64bit seconds

Hi,
when transforming a unix time into a boost::posix_time::ptime, the value
of the unix time is truncated to long in for method
boost::posix_time::from_time_t.
As a result, -4260211200 is represented by some ptime in the year 1971,
but it should be 1835.
Or, in other words Boost.DateTime has the year 2038 problem.
Regards,
Roland
