Switch time_t, ino_t, clock_t, and struct kevent's ident and data members to 64bit types. Assign new syscall numbers for (almost all) the syscalls that involve the affected types, including anything with time_t, timeval, itimerval, timespec, rusage, dirent, stat, or kevent arguments. Add a d_off member to struct dirent and replace getdirentries() with getdents(), thus immensely simplifying and accelerating telldir/seekdir. Build perl with -DBIG_TIME.
