The only usage of poll I see in the credentials system is:

credentials-cache--daemon.c 177: if (poll(&pfd, 1, 1000 * wakeup) < 0) {

My guess is that (1000 * wakeup) is more than INT_MAX and is becoming negative as the man page for poll seems to indicate that it will fail if timeout < -1.
Does anyone familiar with the credentials daemon want to try to figure out a reasonable fix?
