Hi,we recently needed to rebuild a rather old list archive. The oldest mails are from 2001, and as far as I could tell the last complete rebuild happened in 2005. When we ran "arch --wipe" now, it failed:
Aktualisiere HTML f?r Artikel 1412Schreibe Archivzustand in Datei /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/linux-users/pipermail.pck
Traceback (most recent call last):

ValueError: timestamp out of range for platform time_t
Obviously the mails that caused this error were broken, but a previous
version of arch was able to build the archive regardless. I wrote the
following patch to work around the problem (I wrote it for 2.1.18, but I
checked that the code looks the same in 2.1.21):

If an exception is caught, the date is simply set to the current time.
