The probing sequence I proposed should also work for statx. 8-p > Don't you have the same issue with glibc for those architectures that > don't have fstatat or 32bit arches that need 64-bit time_t?

The Y2038 changes in glibc impact 64-bit ports a little, but mostly on the fringes (e.g., clock_nanosleep vs nanosleep).
