Looks like it's a bug in utc_mktime() function which is based on code 
from Cyrus.. And looks like they've since figured out a way to fix it:

+       /* Some gmtime() implementations are broken and will return
+        * NULL for time_ts larger than 40 bits even on 64-bit platforms
+        * so we'll just cap it at 40 bits */
+       if(bits > 40) bits = 40;

I'll implement a similar fix. If you change TIME_T_MAX_BITS in config.h 
to 40 it should work?
