Are there problems with this? Say you backup a wallet.dat, save it somewhere. The next time you run the client it generates for you a new wallet.dat. Months go by, now you wish to spend bitcoins in old wallet.dat. Can there be a problem from this if you merely copy back the old save from months before?
