Yes.  Tests normally use public interfaces, not internal ones.  Where a 
test needs to use internal interfaces related to time, such interfaces may 
end up needing variants for different sizes of time_t (but unless they 
actually result in functions defined in installed shared libraries and 
used both from those shared libraries and from other installed libraries 
or executables, the hidden_def mechanism is not relevant for such 
interfaces).
