/* The following expression rounds twice, which means the result may not
be the closest to the true answer. For example, suppose time_t is
64-bit signed int, long_double is IEEE 754 double with default
rounding, time1 = 9223372036854775807 and time0 = -1536. Then the
true difference is 9223372036854777343, which rounds to
9223372036854777856 with a total error of 513. But delta overflows to
-9223372036854774273, which rounds to -9223372036854774784, and
correcting this by subtracting 2 * (long_double) hibit (i.e. by adding
2**64 = 18446744073709551616) yields 9223372036854776832, which rounds
to 9223372036854775808 with a total error of 1535 instead. This
problem occurs only with very large differences. It's too painful to
fix this portably. We are not alone in this problem; many C compilers
round twice when converting large unsigned types to small floating
types, so if time_t is unsigned the "return delta" above has the same
double-rounding problem. */
