You should be worried about more than Time::HiRes. Although the module shouldn't fail, you have potentially bigger problems:
- You seem to be using Debian 6 "Squeeze". Long-term support for that ended in 2014 (ten years ago) if Wikipedia is to be trusted. That potentially means you are missing a decade of security bugfixes.
- You are using a 32bit operating system. These have all kinds of limitations. Including that your OS (or major libraries installed in it) potentially still use 32bit timestamps. Or use a mix of 32/64 bit timestamps, which certainly could explain some of the problems if your filesystem timestamp bitsize mismatches Perl.
- It seems even the Debian maintainers are thinking of sunsetting 32bit distros.
As for me, i can't even test Time::HiRes on a 32 bit system anymore, because i have upgraded the last one more than a decade ago. I might have some ancient Raspberry PI around in some spare parts box that i could potentially get running again. But this bug might be processor/file system specific. What filesystem are you running on?
