The manpage(man  3 strptime) says:

Two-digit year values, including formats %y and %D, are now interpreted
     as beginning at 1969 per POSIX requirements.  Years 69-00 are interpreted
     in the 20th century (1969-2000), years 01-68 in the 21st century
     (2001-2068).


You mean "strptime cannot parse date later than 2038".
The famous Y2038 bug.

If you compile your program with the compiler flag "-arch x86_64" or "-arch ppc64", you get the correct result.
