Hi Thomas,

I contemplated reusing BR2_TIME_BITS_64 but I noticed it has a
widespread impact of causing many packages to be configured with
-D_TIME_BITS=64 due to these in package/Makefile.in:

  ifeq ($(BR2_TIME_BITS_64),y)                                                                                                                                                                                
  TARGET_CPPFLAGS += -D_TIME_BITS=64                                                                                                                                                                          
  endif                                                                                                                                                                                                       
  TARGET_CFLAGS = $(TARGET_CPPFLAGS) $(TARGET_ABI) $(TARGET_OPTIMIZATION) $(TARGET_DEBUGGING) $(TARGET_HARDENED)                                                                                              
  TARGET_CXXFLAGS = $(TARGET_CFLAGS)  
  ...
  TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS = \                                                                                                                                                                                   
  ...
          CPPFLAGS="$(TARGET_CPPFLAGS)" \                                                                                                                                                                     
          CFLAGS="$(TARGET_CFLAGS)" \                                                                                                                                                                         
          CXXFLAGS="$(TARGET_CXXFLAGS)" \ 
  ...

I wasn't sure if this is the right thing to do but at the very least
whenever uClib is used, my intention was to only configure itself with
UCLIBC_USE_TIME64.

Assuming if BR2_TIME_BITS_64 applies to both glibc and uClibc, should
-D_TIME_BITS=64 only be appended to glibc GLIBC_EXTRA_CFLAGS?

That's a good idea, I guess I was too focused on trying out uClib's
Y2038 solution. I'll split the patch up as you suggested.
