I don't know, but the obvious way to stop this in future is to issue a suitable warning when the date on the computer exceeds the Sage release data by some period of time. I suggest two levels of warnings - perhaps one after 4 months, and a stronger one after a year. This is http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/8447 It will at least stop this being such an issue in future, as the user will be reminded each time they start Sage that they are using an old version.
