Correct - time_t need not be integral, but do we have any proof of a

I think I'm going to write a POSIX bug requesting that time_t be
tightened to integral in light of the fact that subsecond support is now
uniformly guaranteed via tv_nsec, and given the argument that existing
platforms never took advantage of float time_t.
