It's not at all clear that one cannot solve the y2038 problem on
systems with a 32-bit time_t.
That's what Michael Schwern is trying to do here:
http://code.google.com/p/y2038/
His code is available.

The JDK should find some other anti-inlining technique.

The code should be agnostic about the current time, as suggested.
