krb5_timestamp and 2038

Hi,

as you all probably know, krb5_timestamp currently represented as 32-bit 
signed integer will overflow in 2038.

Is there already a plan in place to fix it?
What is the most likely fix, will krb5_timestamp be made unsigned, or 
64-bit?
Is there a timeline?

Thanks,
Tomas
