Follow-up Comment #1:

It seems that os.utime converts the given numbers into C longs.  I don't think
there is any easy way of making sure they will fit before we call utime. 
(int(modtime) may not do it, because Python now has a single integer type of
arbitrary length I think.)

So I think we should just add try: clause that logs a warning if we get an
overflow error.
