If your system's time_t is a signed 32-bit integer then your system is
able to represent times between 1901-12-13 20:45:53 UTC and 2038-01-19
03:14:07 UTC.  If your system's time_t is an unsigned 32-bit integer
your system can represent times between 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC and
2106-02-07 06:28:15 UTC.

Andreas.
