The example is bad, but I didn't have a machine to show that has been
running a Xen kernel for more than an hour or two.
Oh, I see. But it kind of feels silly to work around a synthetic correctness
test. If we make wc_sec implicitly signed (which is pretty gross) then we
lose 1 bit of magnitude which also isn't great -- I'd rather be able to
represent years 2038 through 2106 than 1902 through 1970.
Isn't unsigned long 64 bits on 64 bit systems anyway?
That would give us a lot more time...
