 There's no guarantee that an int32_t value will be defined with an `int'.
 This might result in unexpected truncation of the printed value.  A better
 fix, IMHO, would be to change the format to %jd and then cast the value to
 (intmax_t) which should avoid truncation of the value (you'll also have to
 include <stdint.h> for intmax_t to be visible).
 
 There are many other warnings in timed that are exposed if you try to build
 it with an increased WARNS level.  Since you seem to like doing this sort
 of work, can you try the following (and see if you can come up with fixes
 for the warnings this shows)?
 
 	# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/timed/
 	# make NO_WERROR=1 WARNS?=3
 
 Thank you for your work so far :-)
