some targets such as VXWorks don't provide gettimeofday but do provide

resolution for the DATE_AND_TIME (up to the 1 millisecond limit of the

fallback of using the C standard time().
Ok for trunk? (Patch both inline below and as an attachment)
I concur and wrote essentially the same patch - except that I used a
different condition (and forgot to change the comment):
+#elif defined(HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME) && defined(CLOCK_REALTIME) &&
!defined(HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME_LIBRT)
I think in practice it shouldn't matter as librt* mostly affects GLIBC
which has gettimeofday. Plus I believe CLOCK_REALTIME should be always
available and only CLOCK_MONOTONIC is unimplemented on some systems
(e.g. on VxWorks 5.5 but not on 6.x according to the documentation).
(* = In intrinsics/system_clock.c, weak refs are used for librt; for
gf_gettime that's an overkill and a simple time() as fall back is
sufficient.)
Okay with considering my preprocessor condition.

PS: In Thunderbird, the attachment is shown as inline. Thus, from my
side, it is sufficient to just keep the attachment.
