Yes, those results are fine.

Note that you should test for a 32-bit configuration as well - this 
applies to pretty much all the patches for 64-bit time, they need testing 
for both 32-bit and 64-bit configurations (some will need other testing, 
e.g. with kernels with the Y2038 patches included, but that doesn't apply 
to this one).

It should be possible to test natively for 32-bit on a 64-bit system if 
you install the relevant OS packages for 32-bit libraries (including 
development packages), and specify CC="gcc -m32" CXX="g++ -m32" when 
configuring for i686-pc-linux-gnu, but I haven't tried that using OS 
compiler packages (I test natively for 32-bit on a 64-bit system, but 
using locally built compilers).
