Sigh, I was hoping that we won't need to handle this situation (glibc 
support only 64-bit time_t, but kernel still providing some 32-bit 
syscall).

Instead of disabling, I think it would be better to use
__KERNEL_OLD_TIMEVAL_MATCHES_TIMEVAL64 instead of __time_t sizeof
(so we can still tests the EOVERFLOW):
