For any time value less than -2**31, ctime returns the
same result, 'Fri Dec 13 12:45:52 1901'.  It should
either compute a correct value (preferable) or raise
ValueError.  It should not return the wrong answer.


>>> from time import *
>>> ctime(-2**31)
'Fri Dec 13 12:45:52 1901'
>>> ctime(-2**34)
'Fri Dec 13 12:45:52 1901'
>>> ctime(-1e30)
'Fri Dec 13 12:45:52 1901'
