Log Message:
Add a few casts to avoid (IMHO bogus) gcc warnings breaking the vax build.

-       if (dayoff < min_time / SECSPERDAY) {
+       if (dayoff < (long)(min_time / SECSPERDAY)) {

time_t and zic_t are 64 bit types, and max_time and min_time are the largest possible positive and negative 64-bit values. max_time / SECSPERDAY or min_time / SECSPERDAY will be much too large to fit in a 32-bit int, and casting to int will cause overflow.

Does adding a /*CONSTCOND*/ comment work? If so, I'd prefer that to a cast. If you do need a cast, then I think you should cast dayoff to zic_t.
