Comment (by ryankung):

 Hi

 I'm trying build tor for QNX, and met this errors when run configures.

 "You have an unsigned time_t; Tor does not support that. Please tell the
 Tor developers about your interesting platform."

 And QNX is using a unsigned 32-bit/64-bit number for time_t.


 . The time_t data type is an unsigned 32-bit number, which extends this
 range for many applications through 2106. The kernel itself uses unsigned
 64-bit numbers to count the nanoseconds since January 1970, and so can
 handle dates through 2554.

 So I think we should reverse this ticket/merge.
