As an aside - you can easily reproduce this error on a Linux machine
by adding a task at say 8000 days, and then in gantt dragging the
end date handle to try and go beyond beyond 2037 or so (about 8600
days). It wraps around back to the current project start but also
raises those asserts. It also renders date bar in gantt in the 2030's
not very nicely and takes a long time to render this one task.

I'll raise a bugzilla for these far-in-the-future dates because
though it sounds silly there are a number of things in business
which must be stored and planned for with long periods of time
e.g. Employers' Liability insurance records in UK must be kept
for 40 years, so we might as well log the problem and then at
some time in the future plan how we'll address this.

Rgds,
