I think the intended meaning of this was that "ABIs with defaults to 32 
bit time_t" was a phrase describing those glibc configurations for which 
support for 64-bit time_t was added (as opposed to those glibc 
configurations already defaulting to 64-bit time_t in previous glibc 
versions, for which nothing was changed), rather than "defaults to 32 bit 
time_t" being a description of how the new feature behaves.  I.e. this 
change loses the information that many configurations already used 64-bit 
time_t and so were unaffected by this change.
