  Modified files:
    sys/i386/ibcs2       ibcs2_xenix.c 
  Log:
  For the xenix_ftime() routine, don't use the native version of the struct --
  the XENIX version is packed, and two bytes smaller than ours.  So, define
  the structure, and have it packed.  I used the __attribte__((packed))
  modifier for this; I could also have surrounded the struct definition with
  #pragma pack(2) -- but that would have meant making ibcs2_timeb's definition
  outside the function.  This may need to be revisited if we ever want to
  compile with a compiler other than gcc.  (I also used 'unsigned long'
  instead of 'time_t' because I am writing to match an external specification
  -- and the definition of time_t could change.)
