I would like to change mktime() return type to make the function more
consistent: all inputs are integers, it sounds wrong to me to return
float. The result should be integer as well.
In C, the signature of mktime is time_t mktime(struct tm *time);
from Wikipedia, the Unix time_t data type, on many platforms, is a
signed integer, tradionally (32bits). In the newer operating systems,
time_t has been widened to 64 bits.
