I think this should say explicitly that these macros are purely internal 
(visible when glibc is built, but not to users of glibc), and that they 
exist so that a single definition of the 64-bit time functions can be used 
on both kinds of configurations, and so that glibc code can freely call 
the 64-bit functions internally.
