* Adhemerval Zanella via Libc-alpha:

Does the mirror what the kernel does?  I have some concerns about
backwards compatibility here, but if the kernel does it as well, that is
likely a non-issue.

I think this kind of emulation goes against our general guidance of not
emulating system calls in userspace.  It would probably be necessary if
we switch an existing 32-bit target to 64-bit time_t by default, though.

Thanks,
Florian
