Yes, I thought I had described that somewhere but maybe I
forgot: semtimedop() and io_pgetevents() get replaced with
time64 versions in the follow-up, so I only added them in
64-bit architectures. If you think we should have both
io_pgetevents() and io_pgetevents_time32() on all 32-bit
architectures, I can add that as well.
