time_t appears to be an unsigned long so use %ld.

Applied.  Sorry for the breakage.

There is a new breakage:

Now it will fail with w64 (which uses 64 bit time_t and
a 32 bit long).

That's a bug in w64 (it has a broken ABI).

Do we actually build and run on w64??

It's actually sensible and x32 does the same.  Not too urgent though.

I don't understand how making a long 32 bit is sensible but...  I sent a patch 
that should at least address q64.

Am not sure what x32 is though.

x32 is 32-bit ABI (with 32-bit pointers and 4GB address space) with the
x86-64 (64-bit) ISA.

Wow.  That's..  interesting :-)

In general, violating sizeof(long) >= sizeof(void *) seems like an exceeding bad 
idea to me.

Any 32 bit system will have to use a 64 bit time_t sooner or later
to avoid an overflow. Not only w64 but also w32 supports it.
Future 32 bit Linux versions will also need it.

The size of a long is a different matter.

Stefan W.

Yet another reason that we all should build bunkers for the upcoming Unix epoch 
overflow apocalypse..  that is, if the machines don't revolt before 2038 ;-)

By the way, it should be easy to add a user emulator for x32, much
like sparc32plus. Some x86 target_ulongs may need to be changed to
abi_ulongs and wasn't the system call interface different to the 32
bit one?

Not portable.  POSIX does not guarantee the size of time_t; there are
32-bit platforms where time_t is 64-bit.

The only way to print a time_t value is to cast it through a known-width
type, and seeing as how there are 64-bit time_t on 32-bit platforms,
that pretty much has to be %jd and intmax_t.
