Sorry, I missed this email.

The RV32 port depends on 64-bit time_t. As RV32 only supports 64-bit
time_t (compared to the ARM port which has to support both 32-bit and
64-bit) we have significantly less work required.

Once Adhemerval's semctl patch series goes in everything should be
ready for RV32 support.
