It may work for this example, but 'configure' checks for a number of mktime 
bugs, and perhaps mktime is not working for some other examples.

Is 'configure' setting APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD to 1, or to 0?  You can tell by 
looking for APPLE_UNIVERSAL_BUILD in lib/Makefile.

When 'configure' says 'checking for working mktime', what's the result?

If you compile and run the attached program, using the same flags that you use 
to build Emacs, what is its exit status?
