Also, because _dateStr(77777777777777777) seems to wreak havoc:

@kseistrup Are those still reproduced after this patch is applied? #162

@marcgurevitx

No, then I just get an empty string for overflowing dates, and subsequent floating points are unaffected.

(I'm not on Windows, I only inserted the two new lines 35+36 since everything else seemed irrelevant.)
