<upd_detl>3 of the 5 sentences use this form. I think it's a usage matter rather than a separate 
sense.</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>Agreed. I don't even think we need the note. Of the seven GG5 examples, only one is in that form.
The most popular form is 久しく ("for a long time"), which I think is worth adding as a separate entry. The meaning isn't always immediately obvious from these glosses.</upd_detl>
