I won't rehash the whole complex rationale that was discussed. What I
essentially remember from it is that since this changes the ABI, this
breaks compatibility with pre-built binaries downloadable from the
Internet, so better leave them with the y2038 problem until then rather
than breaking them now.

Concerning the Hurd were we don't really have that problem, it's still a
lot of work while on the long run we should just migrate to amd64.
