Where is that code?

One example is url-digest-auth-make-cnonce. This was the first I ran into. No doubt there are others.

And why would it be difficult to teach
format-time-string to deal with the tricky bits that current-time
returns.

?! format-time-string already does that. And it's a hassle. Other Emacs Lisp code inspects timestamps directly too. And it's a hassle for that code too. Bignums would significantly lessen this hassle. Surely this is obvious.
