The space shuttle had a related problem, although not caused by overflow. Some parts of the STS's avionics used a clock that would reset to zero at 00:00:00 on 1st January, while other components had clocks that would continue to count up. If a shuttle mission spanned the new year boundary then systems would panic if they could no longer agree on the time.
