I'll consider backpatching once I have a chance to dive in. 

It is somewhat complicated by the fact that my code tree is pretty
massively changed in this area as I implement an int64-based date/time
storage alternative to the float64 scheme we use now. The alternative
would be enabled with something like #ifdef HAVE_INT64_TIMESTAMP.
Benefits would include having a predictable precision behavior for all
allowed dates and times.
