Bug#1008724: gscan2pdf: date out of range after changing date before saving

[bw]

I used the date field for the date the article I was scanning was created..
Maybe it is not the right field for it?
Sometimes I just know a year like 1758 or with a month. So I prefer an
almost open field.

Good catch. Most file systems don't support file dates before 1970. I 
thought I had put in test cases for all code like this, but this one 
obviously got away.


Thanks for the report. Fixed in the next release.
