I canʼt reproduce this. Did you use the same emacs to compile org as
youʼre running here? Does the problem go away if you run org
uncompiled? Do you have any 'interesting' items in
~/.org-timestamps/org.cache?

According to my reading of the code, this can only happen if youʼre
overflowing the maximum integer value on your machine, but the value
in your backtrace is well below that even on 32 bit machines.

Could you let us know your values of most-positive-fixnum,
system-configuration, system-configuration-options and
system-configuration-features?
