This is OS limitation and PHP has nothing to do with it.

Description:
------------
Hello PHP Team.
I recently discovered a problem with standard timestamps. They are
stored as integers. Integers have a range up to 2147483647.
date( "Y-m-d H:i:s", 2147483647 ) results in:
2038-01-19 04:14:07
If you got a date after 2038 in text format and want to convert it to
integer, you will get back 2147483647. So you are back in 2038 again.
I would dislike to see all the time related PHP applications break on
the above date.
Is there any possibility to switch timestamps to long?
(btw, the same occurs with dates before 1901-12-13 21:45:52 which is
date( "Y-m-d H:i:s, -2147483648 ))
I am looking forward to your answers.
