Review comment:
       CONFIG_SYSTEM_TIME64 determines if the high precision system timer is 
32- or 32-bits with.  time_t is the number of seconds since the epoch.  They 
are unrelated.  I don't see why the width of time_t should should be side of 
effect and depend on the width of the high precision timer.  Seems like a 
unnecessary, undesirable coupling.
