Actually, it's not ctime that has changed, it is the st_size entry of the
stat buffer. Using "cc -Wall" on your program says:
foo.c:8: warning: int format, different type arg (arg 2)
Changing your printf to have the correct format for a quad int:
> printf("%7qd %.12s ", sbuf.st_size, ctime(&sbuf.st_mtime)+4);
will make the output look right.
