Well, I've had exactly 1 volunteer to assist in my review, and that one
person is self-confessed non-C person.  C'mon, perhaps a few more people
could chip in and review just one occurrence of gettimeofday() as listed
in my web pages.  It took me about 4 hours to review 80 files, an average
of 3 minutes each.  There are about 150 more to do, so if 150 people spent
3 minutes in choosing a file to review and e-mailing me with what they
found, it would all be done with almost no effort for anyone but me, the
collator.  Most of the responses will be "random number seeding" or
"timeout set in seconds" or "lapsed time measured in minutes", and it does
not take much effort to figure out which one.

Thanks,

Danny
