year2038: be more insistent about 64-bit time_t
Applications requiring access to arbitrary files should not be
built with 32-bit time_t on hosts that have 64-bit timestamps,
as this can lead to real trouble at runtime.
* m4/year2038.m4 (gl_YEAR2038): Do not require AC_CANONICAL_HOST.
Check on all systems, not just MinGW. Use a heuristic involving
TIME_T_32_BIT_OK, cross_compiling, and the touch command to
output a failure or just a warning, to make it more likely that
builders will select 64-bit time_t.
