OS X typedefs time_t as a __darwin_time_t; __darwin_time_t as long,  
independent of architecture. If you compile with LP64 support (#define  
__LP_64__), you get a 63-bit long, otherwise you get 31 bits (long is  
signed).

time.h
sys/types.h
i386/_types.h
ppc/_types.h
i386/limits.h
ppc/limits.h

That said:

$ file /mach_kernel
/mach_kernel: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/mach_kernel (for architecture i386):	Mach-O executable i386
/mach_kernel (for architecture ppc):	Mach-O executable ppc
$

...the kernel in 10.5 is still 32-bit. 2038 looms.
