Personal response:

The limit of +/- 14 hours was specified in XSD 1.0 and it is not now possible
to gratuitously reduce the range. I have no idea why it was specified that way,
but that's now immaterial. You can't change the rules for a basic data type 7
years after publishing the spec.

Since this aspect of the specification is unchanged from XSD 1.0, this bug
appears to have been misclassified: it is a comment on the 1.0 specification,
not on the 1.1 last-call draft.
