--- Comment #4 from Ed Maste <emaste at freebsd.org> ---
Ah, it's actually a y2106 problem: on all archs but i386 we have 64-bit time_t
but are storing 32-bit unsigned ints in the pwd db. signed 32 bit int goes to
2038, unsigned 32 bit to 2106.

i386 has 32-bit time_t and chpass will already reject post-y2038 dates.
