work around gcc libstdc++ time64 incompatibility
with the default --enable-libstdcxx-time, libstdc++'s configure probes
for the existence of a clock_gettime syscall and sets up the time API
implementation to make direct syscalls, presumably as a workaround for
old glibc tucking away the clock_gettime function in librt, which in
turn depends on libpthread. this breaks since struct timespec does not
match the syscall's interface on 32-bit archs.
passing --enable-libstdcxx-time=rt forces different configure paths
that correctly use the public clock_gettime function and librt if
needed.
this issue should be patched in gcc rather than worked around via
configure options, but I'd rather wait to patch until I understand how
to fix it correctly and produce a patch that's acceptable to upstream
and distros.
