Went to touch up some trim. The latex interior paint smells horrid in
the can, almost like mildew. The paint is a about 2 years old. There
is no visible contamination in the paint.

The paint itself continues to have the "funny" smell while it's drying.
Once it has dried, there is no more "funny" smell.
Is it safe to continue using this paint.

Yes. Did it freeze? Putting a tablespoon of pure vanilla extract in
the paint will cut down on the bad smell.
