The failure is because bash, for some reason, still links against
gettimeofday rather than __gettimeofday64, and calls that to seed its
internal random number generator. I still can't figure out why it's
using the old version, though.
ubuntu@noble-armhf:~$ readelf -W -s a.out | grep timeof # a simple test program
that just calls gettimeofday()
9: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND __gettimeofday64@GLIBC_2.34
(2)
98: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND __gettimeofday64@GLIBC_2.34
ubuntu@noble-armhf:~$ readelf -W -s /bin/bash | grep timeof
105: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND gettimeofday@GLIBC_2.4 (2)
faketime redefines gettimeofday, except that it uses the timeval
definition from glibc which is of course using 64bit time_t. Mayhem
ensues.
