You'll run right up against an ill-defined VM limitation.
What is the millisecond clock roll over period for your VM?

Hint on the macintosh it's measured in days, not years nor months.
Since I'm building a 3.2.8b4 VM right now, and looking for paying 
work, I'll leave the exercise of stating what that magic value is to 
some other reader.
It might be different on Unix or windows too...
