I vote for option (3), 64-bit time_t for all 64 bit architectures.
I would go along with option (4) provided that the change-over came 
with FreeBSD 5.0 and it was not MFC'ed back to the 4.X series.
The change from 4.X to 5.0 will have enough other things going on
that I do not think that adding the time_t change would cause a
lot more pain provided that old dump tapes and log files could
be read.
