When I change the date of the system, using the "date" command, to and
"older" date, xorg crash. It's reproducible easily, and it happens
every time. It happens even if the only application started is an
xterm.

There's no problem if I change the date in the future.

To reproduce the problem:

:~$ date
Wed Nov 21 13:39:01 EST 2007
:~$ date 112111532007
Wed Nov 21 11:53:00 EST 2007

xorg output :

Backtrace:

Yes, this is a known problem which has been fixed since Xserver 1.3 (currently in testing). 

Cheers,
