Disable this check or convert your time_t.
Yes, I know gcc47 checks the format string.
But, time_t is of type int32, from a typedef statement.
#include <stdio.h>
typedef int zzz;
typedef zzz yyy;
typedef yyy xxx;
int main() {
xxx idx;
for (idx=0; idx<10; idx++) printf("%d\n",idx);
return 0;
}
does not produce the error (I did this on the 'other' system)

I did not think to do this on the FreeBSD system I was using yesterday.
What I don't understand is where gcc is losing track of this definition.
In 9.0, or maybe earlier, the definition of time_t was changed with a
view toward 64-bit systems. I remember a statement to the effect of "in
2038, 32-bit time will overflow. It is unlikely that many 32-biot
systems will be around then. So, making the change to 64-bit now will
prevent having to do it in the future".
So, now, it seems that any calculation involving time_t requires a cast????
