 ** Bug fixes
 
-  gzip now warns about file time stamps out of gzip range, or out of
-  time_t range, instead of silently continuing, sometimes with
-  undefined behavior.  This affects time stamps before 1970 or after
-  2106, and time stamps after 2038 on 32-bit platforms.
-  [bug present since the beginning]
+  When converting time stamps to gzip file format (32-bit unsigned) or
+  to time_t format (system-dependent), gzip now ignores out-of-range
+  values instead of shoehorning them into the destination format,
+  sometimes with undefined behavior.  This affects time stamps before
+  1970 and after 2106, and time stamps after 2038 on platforms with
+  32-bit signed time_t.  [bug present since the beginning]
 
   Support for VMS and Amiga has been removed.  It was not working anyway,
   and it reportedly caused file name glitches on MS-Windowsish platforms.
