Description:
------------
It seems that var_dump(strtotime('1214431948')); is returning int(-678980717) instead timestamp / false / -1
I belive is an overflow somewhere...

Version:
PHP Version 5.2.0-8+etch11
Build Date 	May 10 2008 10:31:53
Linux 2.6.18-6-686, debian 4.0


Reproduce code:
---------------
var_dump(strtotime('1214431948'));
var_dump(strtotime('1214431946'));

Expected result:
----------------
false | -1
false | -1

Actual result:
--------------
int(-678980717)
int(-742139117)

'1214431948' is being understood as
'HHiissYYYY'

var_dump(date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('1214431947'))); will show you what's happening.

This is not suppose to happen.

From PHP manual: 
Return Values:
Returns a timestamp on success, FALSE otherwise. Previous to PHP 5.1.0, this function would return -1 on failure.

A timestamp is an unsigned integer. Of course in PHP there is no such thing. I still belive is an integer overflow.

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.
