The compiler has two sets of complaints. Firstly, `t->tm_gmtoffset` is a `long int`, but it is being passed to `abs`, which leads to warnings such as: ulogd_output_JSON.c:308:34: warning: absolute value function `abs` given an argument of type `long int` but has parameter of type `int` which may cause truncation of value Secondly, it can't verify that the hour value derived from the offset will in fact fit into `%02d`, thus: ulogd_output_JSON.c:306:37: warning: `%02d` directive output may be truncated writing between 2 and 6 bytes into a region of size 5 To remedy these, we now mod the offset by 86,400 and assign it to an `int` before deriving the hour and minute values. We also change the format-specifier for the hour value to `%+03d` which causes a sign to be printed even if the value is positive, thus allowing us not to specify the sign explicitly and to drop the `abs` call for the hour value.
