Hi List,

I think Haiku have this problem too:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

What can a good way to fix this and where all need this?

- libroot?
- libbe?
- POSIX time.h (posix and posix/sys) vs Haiku bigtime_t
(support/SupportDefs.h) and Kernel Time (kernel/OS.h)
- BeFS ? but the FS are 64 bit.

I look into posix/time.h it little bit old (some other POSIX stuff
too) then posix/sys/time.h
(and why have we the double headers of time.h?)

It's nice when found some developers he can review and  fix this. What
think the list about this problem?
