--- Comment #3 from j...@iki.fi --- To Conrad I have to point out that truncating INT64_MIN to 32 bits might produce INT32_MIN on a big endian system. On a little endian platform the type cast invariably produces a plain zero (0). Concerning my using CHAR_BIT instead of plain numeric 8 I have to say I like portability enough to assume someone some day might wish to use FreeBSD on a system which does not use the 8/16/32/64 bits basic data units division our contemporary systems use. Maybe one day there is a reason to run FreeBSD on a system using 9/18/36 data unit division like in the old PDP-10 or IBM 7094. When there is no real reason to use minimum time_t it is in my opinion really much better to use -(SYNCOOKIE_LIFETIME + 1) as done in the fix 322454.
