Shouldn't we fix how suseconds_t is defined in glibc in the 64-bit time
case? It's not as if any interfaces in glibc use suseconds_t other than
as part of struct timeval (though we should still warn in NEWS about
potential compatibility issues for any interfaces using suseconds_t in
third-party libraries).

Title:
  Wrong type for timeval.tv_usec on armhf/Noble (and other failures)

Status in GLibC:
  New
Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I xfailed a whole stack of the "conform" tests on armhf, which
  presumably fail because of the change in default size of time_t (and
  off_t). We should work out what is going on here before release --
  maybe leaving them xfail is appropriate but I'm not confident to say
  that at this time.
