So, from what i've learned, it's not possible export flows that spans more than ~49 days because first/last switched are expressed in ms since boot on 32bits = max 4294967296ms ... ~49days. So even when i'd tried to fake boot time (in softflowd.c line 1876) i could still export data with correct timestamps only 49days into the future then i would need to restart export and compute new head (sys_uptime and unix_secs) and also first last for each flow.
Or is there an easier way out?
