No, it's A.D. 1,116,918, i.e., more than a million years
from now. Pretty outlandish, admittedly, but people often
use Emacs for outlandish things. On my 64-bit host with
TZ=UTC0, (current-time-string '(536870912 0)) returns
"Sat May 14 19:20:32 1116918", the correct value;
on GNU/Linux x32, though, Emacs configured without --with-wide-int
will report an error even though that platform's 64-bit time_t
can represent that time stamp; this is because 536870912 doesn't
fit in an Emacs integer when EMACS_INT is 32 bits.
I expect that MinGW32 will behave like GNU/Linux x32 once you
get those time_t pointer bugs fixed.
