Hey, that's cool.

One thing that perplexed me when first porting 4.0.92g to NetBSD was
that HAVE_TIMER_SETTIME seems to imply timeval's everywhere, whereas
our timer_gettime() and timer_settime() use timespec's. That's why
detection of those two is disabled in 4.0.92h and above. Now I figure,
that to get any meaningful use out of the nanosecond stuff, you'd want
the loop filter to use timeval's too. So my question is, would not
changing timer_gettime() and timer_settime() to use timeval's break
existing binaries?
