Hi,
When searching for a way to do Date arithmetic on client side, I came
across a discussion titled "lower bit error bug in serialization of
very large long fields" .
http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit/browse_thread/thread/3c1c5e896d8ca9bd/4098670409834b8d?lnk=gst&q=date+serialization#4098670409834b8d

According to the above (and some other threads) the issue can result
in incorrect serialization of java.util.Date objects.

I researched a bit but cannot find any related bug report in issue-
tracker.

Does anyone know whether this issue is fixed or not?

Regards
Tahir Akhtar

Searching on this forum also didn't return anything about the status
of this issue.
Looking at the source of Date.java in JRE emul it is apparent that it
is using long internally (I have 1.4.60).
