msDebug causes a crash with VS2005

Description
It seem VS2005 uses _int64 as time_t by default. In this case ctime() cause a crash when setting up the debug environment. eg MS_ERRORFILE=stderr.
More information:
In mapserver we consider time_t is 32 bit in size and we pass long* to ctime which expects _int64* there. For fixing the problem we might want to pass a time_t* to the function or use _USE_32BIT_TIME_T for falling back to the 32 version of ctime.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
It seems that _USE_32BIT_TIME_T doesn't work on _WIN64 so eventually the 'pass a time_t* to the ctime function' approach was used.
