As I stated in my previous comment, that value is the result of a
floating-point substraction, and thus can be negative. Observe:
-1.39835e-11
killall: killall.c:387: kill_all: Assertion `process_age_sec >= 0L' failed.
-2.7967e-11
killall: killall.c:387: kill_all: Assertion `process_age_sec >= 0L' failed.
-9.32232e-12
killall: killall.c:387: kill_all: Assertion `process_age_sec >= 0L' failed.
(IMO, it would be safer to do all calculations in integer clock ticks.)
