SHOO wrote that portion of the code as part of his stopwatch stuff, so I'm 
probably not as clear on that as I am on most of the other stuff, but it was 
working for him, as far as I know, and I've done some testing on wine (including 
making sure that all of the unit tests pass), so it's not like it blows up or 
anything like that. There could be some sort of fundamental problem with it or 
subtle bug that I'm not aware of, but it at least appears to work. I'd have to 
study up on it to see whether there are any real problems with it. I was just 
using the code that SHOO had to get the current system time at high resolution. 
I figured that he'd figured all that out, and there was no reason to duplicate 
effort.
