I wonder if this 32-bitness is related to the accounting problems
noticed on sparc64 since the 64-bit time_t changeover:

struct lastlog {
        int32_t ll_time;
        char    ll_line[UT_LINESIZE];
        char    ll_host[UT_HOSTSIZE];
};

struct utmp {
        char    ut_line[UT_LINESIZE];
        char    ut_name[UT_NAMESIZE];
        char    ut_host[UT_HOSTSIZE];
        int32_t ut_time;
};
