 Never mind, it's this:
 
 verify (LONG_MIN <= TYPE_MINIMUM (time_t) && TYPE_MAXIMUM (time_t) <= LONG_MAX);
 
 which is of course not remotely true. I'd swear this has come up
 before (also from the secret library of broken gnu code that magically
 appears cutpasted into gnu tools) but I can't find any other patches
 for it.
 
 Anyway, just removing the bogus assertion should make it build.
 Whether it will work is another question.
