i think linux is the problem: when x32 tried to do 64bit time_t
on an ilp32 target it turned out to be a disaster, because
various driver and fs code can only deal with 32bit time_t when
long is 32bit (although x32 had other issues too: mixing 64bit
kernel space and 32bit userspace types).
the consensus after x32 was that new 32bit targets will keep
using 32bit time_t and there is an independent project to add
64bit time_t support (by introducing new syscalls, types etc)
that will apply to all 32bit targets once it's done.
