OK for 2.32 with comment.

Thanks. I had no considered x32 during the review.

Yes, some of the tests have bounds which are quite tight. We could either
loosen the bounds or compile as you indicate. I'm OK either way. I'll
ack this patch.

OK with this comment:

# In support_timespec_check_in_range we may be passed a very
# tight range for which we should produce a correct result
# for expected being withing the observed range.  The code
# uses double internally in support_timespec_check_in_range
# and for that computation we use -fexcess-precision=standard.
