Well, the plan was (and is for now) to provide this API only in combination with pthread-POSIX layer. The cause for this is, that timers share API to be breakable in terms of pthread's kill. The header hick-up here is that we need to define within unistd.h - if this API is present - the proper defines for it. If you can think of a better way to provide this functionality in a POSIX compatible way, then I will adopt this approach.
