   I don't have the machine on which I reported.
   I re-tested on several machines:
   
   1.6L		MMX		doesn't reproduce
   2.1_STABLE	Pentium III	doesn't reproduce
   2.1_STABLE	Pentium 4	doesn't reproduce
   3.0_STABLE	Opteron		doesn't reproduce
   3.1_RC2		Athlon		reproduces (*)
   
   (*)
   % nice -20 ./a.out
   1159078473 685368 < 1159078474 685368
   1159078475 16326 < 1159078476 16326
   1159078476 703156 < 1159078477 703156
   ^C
   
   This seems different sort of botch from the one in the PR, though.
   
   How does it work on your machines?

works fine on p4-m, g4/733 and ultrasparc/440.  i am wondering
if the above system would be OK with timecounters?
