Why can we not just have a little hook for a plugin, so everybody WHO WANTS to view future dated posts can do so with some plugin.
Maybe it was not right to hack wordpress to use it as a cms, but I did in the past and now i always have to hope everything will work after updating wordpress. by the way this is the reason why some of my old customers still work with wordpress 2.0. i would love to update their installation on a regular basis, but i am just afraid of destroying their site.

I wrote a plugin for that case. You can download it at: https://www.danielschindler.de/wp/show_all/

in wp-includes/classes.php look for:
$where .= " AND post_date_gmt <= '$now'";
and replace it with:
// $where .= " AND post_date_gmt <= '$now'";
It should be in line 591.
