OK, thanks, then I guess it's better to be consistent with POSIX.  I
installed the patch you sent, with one more int->long change, into
both gnulib and coreutils.  Here's what I installed.

        * xtime.h (xtime_make, xtime_nonnegative_nsec, xtime_nsec): Use
        long int, not int, for nanosecond counts, so that people who are
        used to POSIX struct timespec won't be surprised.  Reported by Jim
        Meyering.
