NAK.  tv_sec should already be time_t.  This is a bug in your system
header definition of 'struct timespec', or in something that gnulib has
done to that struct in the meantime; and we should make gnulib work
around it if we can't get if fixed in mingw.

Can you help us identify why we are getting a type mismatch warning from
the compiler in the first place?
