Actually, it's ext4 (and btrfs) that has nanosecond resolution. At least 
ext2 and ext3 have 1 second timestamp resolutions as well, so we can't 
really rely on the platform being Linux or not.

IMHO, we should just disable the test suite on affected architectures.  
Have you checked if the test suite of 2.6 runs (IIRC the test suite 
harness has changed significantly after 2.4)?
