Bram, first of all, I'd like to say I'm very sorry to report this crash days after you manage to release the gold version. :/ I've been running the beta for a month or two now and I swear to you I would have reported this right away if I would have run across it earlier.

I have a file I extracted from a tarball. When extracting, tar warned me that it had a rather invalid modification date (0 seconds from epoch). Since I'm -5 GMT, a local representation of the time shows the date as Wednesday, December 31, 1969, 7:00:00 PM.

I went to edit the file in vim 7.0 and it crashed. Loading in 6.4 worked fine. I built a debug of vim 7.0 and discovered the following assertion failed when loading the file: ( ( ( long )( yr - 1900 ) >= _BASE_YEAR ) && ( ( long )( yr - 1900 ) <= _MAX_YEAR64 ) )

Of course, touching the file fixes the crash.
