Hi,
We realized on our machine, the timespec.time_t (long int) is of 4 bytes, which
would cause overflow when converting to internal tmv_t, if the second value is
bigger than 2pow(31)-1.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem
How do we solve this problem in general? Would below conversion to unsigned is
a proper fix?
Thanks,
Vincent
