Comment (by Daniel Atallah <datallah@…>):

 (In [2aa4d5ab8916]):[[BR]]
 Add workaround so that certificates with times that can't be represented
 using
 32-bit timestamps will still work when using NSS. Refs #15586

  * the current libpurple API uses time_t (signed 32-bit on most platforms)
  * this works by fudging the certificate dates to the subset of the time
 window
    that can be represented with time_t
