 Same thing that bde@ asked me to create, so it naturally looks good :).
 
 The reason why I hadn't posted anything earlier about this bug is that
 bde@ brought it to my attention that there are additional issues with
 the timer code, mostly dealing with the fact that itimerfix isn't used
 when checking the bounds of the tv argument. There are other
 associated issues with using this though (itimerfix checks tv_msec,
 and nanosleep doesn't check the tv_msec field because nanosleep uses
 nanosecond granularity, not millisecond granularity).
 
 Thanks!
