[Support #ENJ-388618]: garp crashing on 64-bit

Bryan,

I recently found this email you sent to gempak@unidata rather than 
support-gempak@unidata.

The behavior you mention below was due to a size mismatch in passing a time_t
to an integer variable (which is a different size in 64 bit).  I modified this 
to 
so that the routine correctly uses time_t with the 5.9.4 distribution. 
Basically,
the clock in the lowwer left corner of Garp could crash or have junk in it, and
eventually crash.
