When we use openssl to generate the certificate, we add a certain time,
i.e. thirty years, to the time when the certificate is created.
It is 2008 now and this makes the expiration date 2038. Unfortunately
this triggers the infamous year 2038 problem
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem
This means new installation will get the expiration date in 1901.
How does openssl address this problem? Is there a patch so that it does
not set the expiration date beyond the 2038 wrap around time?
