System date 7 years ahead

Hi,
I just built and configured a 4.9 box for a friend and I noticed that
the system date was 2011. Timezone, month, day, and time were correct
during install/config but I never noticed the year was in the future
until ntpd refused to adjust the clock.
Will this be a problem when the filesystem has virtually every file and
directory stamped 7 years from now? The box will be kept up with -STABLE
and I'm sure ports will be installed/deinstalled.
The nit-picker in me wants me touch the entire filesystem with the
current date but I'm not sure that's a good idea.
Advice?
