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.

07:00 New ticket

*Test ticket*. (user:

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.
