Perl (including Time::HiRES) is regularly tested against a 32-bit Linux userland, and Debian still provide 32-bit installation images.

That Debian version number looks strange, I only ever recall seeing major.minor versions for Debian. If it is Debian you should have a /etc/debian_version file with the release number.

You can run just the failing test with:

./perl harness -v ../dist/Time-HiRes/t/utime.t

which may provide some clues as to what's going on.

You say you're using the latest Debian archive, do you see the same failure if you build from the origin perl 5.40.1 sources?
