Comment:

 Now that WP3.0 is in beta 2, this bug will remain open and unsolved, am I
 correct? Uncommenting the lines 90-98 in wp-includes/functions.php does
 not work for me.

 Symptoms:
 [1] When entering a published date prior to 1-1-1970 (european date
 format), the published date shown in the edit post screen becomes
 1-1-1970, but the published date shown when viewing the post itself is the
 current date. This means that when you view the same post a day later, the
 published date is a day later then before.
 [2] When permalink structure is set to /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%, all
 post slugs are /1970/01/postname.
 [3] Any reference to the pre-1970 date is no longer shown anywhere.
