Nagios Support Forum

OK, I'm not pretty sure about following, but here we go.
I tried to compile current nagios on a i386 arch and received the
following warning:

squeue.c:34: warning: left shift count >= width of type

If i'm right, long is four bytes long on i386 arch, and as tv_sec is
a long(accordingly to gettimeofday(2)) the result of line 34 on squeue.c
is unpredictable.

Am I right or I'm missing something?

Compiling on a sparc64 and in a x86_64 environment i haven't received
the same warning. On these architectures, sizeof(long) shows me 8 bytes.

What are the performance implications of my patch below?
