We needn't conform strictly to the POSIX spec as far as slashes go;
otherwise we'd be forced to treat "a/b" as not having a directory
separator.

Hi Paul,
What do you think of making gethrxtime fall back on gettime?
Currently, if it can't find a monotonic timer, it tries gettimeofday,
then resorts to using time. Those are also the last resorts of

it'd benefit by using nanotime or
