The support for 64bit time_t on 32bit platforms is quite old by now
actually, but it hasn't seen as much uptake as initially envisioned for
whatever reasons.  So in effect those platforms have announced their EOL
and you should move off them.

I have no 32bit system left that can run a modern enough Linux kernel
and doesn't also support 64bit, so once I update those will not be 32bit
anymore.

Achim.
