Wouldn't it make sense to migrate hurd-i386 to 64-bit time_t regardless of the plans for hurd-amd64? Contrary to linux-i386, it's not like there is a wealth of (possibly proprietary/binary-only) hurd-i386 software out there that we would benefit from remaining compatible with. -- Andrea Bolognani <e...@kiyuko.org> Resistance is futile, you will be garbage collected.
