Bug description:  Function strtotime() always returns FALSE if year > 2037!!

Description:
------------
Any time I enter a date (any format) into strtotime that contains a year
later than 2037, the function returns FALSE every time.  If I change the
year to 2037 or earler, without changing anything else, it works every
time.  I have not been able to find any documentation or other information
to explain this phenomenon.

Pertinent server/module/etc information can be found here: 
http://www.kriscraig.com/phpinfo.php

Reproduce code:
---------------
/* This could not be simpler.... */
print strtotime( "2012-05-06" );  //1336287600 (works)
print strtotime( "12 May 2037" );  //2125724400 (works)
print strtotime( "12 May 2038" );  // (doesn't work!)
print strtotime( "2500-05-06" );  // (doesn't work!)


Expected result:
----------------
They should all return a valid timestamp.  FALSE should only be returned
if it fails, which is not supposed to happen simply because the year being
input is greater than 2037!


Actual result:
--------------
It returns FALSE.  Nothing.  Nada.
