What's the offical suggestion for getting UNIX timestamps for dates <
1970? Or is it not allowed to use them this way?

BTW: The offical PHP docs say, that dates between 1902 and 2037 are
_allowed_. But you say "so stay away from undefined value ranges"!?
Very strange. 

Can you explain that to the users/developers community?

behaviour of unix timestamp functions for dates
before 1.1.1970 is simply undefined and depends 
on the system *and* c library implementation you
use

so stay away from undefined value ranges :)

mktime(0,0,0,1,1,1969); 
is return -1.

but in linux renturn valid value;

maybe before 1970 bug in win32 version.
