>Description:
        building devel/diffutils ends up in the following error.

context.c: In function 'print_context_label':
context.c:65: error: size of array 'a' is negative
*** [context.o] Error code 1
1 error

        "context.c:65" is the following "verify".

            long sec = inf->stat.st_mtime;
            verify (info_preserved, sizeof inf->stat.st_mtime <= sizeof sec);
            sprintf (buf, "%ld.%.9d", sec, nsec);

        it's a compile-time assertion which is false
        on systems where sizeof(time_t) > sizeof(long).

>How-To-Repeat:
        see above.
