This is Darwin specific: the original implementation was causing an
integer overflow when base.numer was very large. On PPC Darwin, the
timebase is 1000000000/33330116 and this is too large for integer
arithmetic.
http://bugs.musicpd.org/view.php?id=4292
The previous report 4289 was rejected as the upstream doesn't have interest in Darwin support. I created a better patch and sent it to the upstream to see if it has any chance to be merged.
