Subject: RTC_RD_TIME

A function to read the hardware clock (the battery powered thingy in
the motherboard):

(man 4 rtc)

void read_hw(struct rtc_time* rtctime){
   int rtcfd=open("/dev/rtc0" , O_RDONLY);
   ioctl(rtcfd, RTC_RD_TIME, rtctime);
   close(rtcfd);
}

(error checking omitted)

The problem:
warning: overflow in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]

(an arrow pointing to RTC_RD_TIME)

The same program compiles without warnings with glibc and dietlibc.
