Just for grins I set my date back to Jan 1st, created a ticket then rebooted. I synced the ticket to my central repo. I'll post back here if this hack breaks anything, but no problems that I could detect. The first ticket here: http://www.kiatoa.com/fossils/megatest, has a creation date from before the repo was created.
2011-01-01 07:00 New ticket [12ff34a800]<http://www.kiatoa.com/cgi-bin/fossils/megatest/info/12ff34a800> *Test ticket*. (user: matt<http://www.kiatoa.com/cgi-bin/fossils/megatest/timeline?u=matt&c=2011-01-01+07%3A00%3A51&nd>) Total time, 20 seconds to make a backup of the fossil, set the date and add ticket, 2 minutes to reboot (slow netbook) and sync.
