>Release:        FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE amd64
>Organization:
GTS
>Environment:
FreeBSD indra 6.0-STABLE FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #2: Thu Jan 12 15:28:18 EST 2006     root@indra:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/INDRA  amd64
>Description:

according to RFC768 the value to be returend to a "time" query is an int32
object, but amd64 (& likely other 64-bit ports) returns 8 bytes with trailing nulls

>How-To-Repeat:
Enable the "time" builtin in inetd.conf, then "telnet localhost time > xxx" -
the last line of "xxx" will contain the erroneous 8 byte result


>Fix:
