I don't see that error; here's what I get:

        COMMIT: 56ca994d471611b44829fa89b58747b288fa66fc

        * lib/nstrftime.c: Modified.
        [_LIBC && ! FPRINTFTIME](libc_hidden_def): Modified function.
        (INT_STRLEN_BOUND): Remove.
        (intprops.h): Include file.
        * modules/nstrftime: Modified.
