The time formatting features are for apr_time_t, and should require microseconds. If you want to use time formatting functions for seconds, then you have to use the ANSI standard functions. Essentially, using a time_t in an apr_time_t function just won't work, and it shouldn't work. As for the file stat fields, just move those to time_t instead of apr_time_t, and the problem goes away too.
I'm strongly against lossy time formats for apr_finfo_t.
-1 for going to seconds in mtime/ctime/atime. Unless we really go nutz and turn them into sec/usec tm values. [Ick.]
Ultimately, we must be able to roundtrip from a stat() into a utime() style call without loosing the old value... at least down to the usec. Many systems will track file times down to the msec, at a minimum.
Doesn't Posix require these fields to be in seconds?
