When trying to make a certificate for 30 years seems you run into the
2038 date limitation. Seems the code converts date to a signed int in
seconds since 1970 and now that we are within 30 years of the 2038 limit
we get hit by it. Using a date of (30 * 365) from now:
notBefore=Mar25 19:33:38 2008 GMT
notAfter=Feb 10 13:05:22 1902 GMT
Clearly it wrapped around and subtracted 68 years from 1970 instead of
adding 68 years.
Is there a plan to remove this limitation ?
I am seeing this on openssl-0.9.7m.
