I ask because once I get my time machine going (which runs on Unix), I want to be able to go farther into the future than 2038. I'm serious... Seriously.

This is going to be another Y2K, in that those who are concerned with the flaw will have worked out the problems years in advance, and the press will have a heyday of Doom-and-Gloom reports telling everyone to stack up on baseball bats with nails in them, football pads, and "juice" for the coming apocalypse brought on by the proud and ignorant computer "experts" we were all trusting.
When the moment comes and goes without incident, they'll proclaim it a victory for the news agencies which apparently got the word out and forced the computer industry to fix the issue.
