Thank you for your bug report.

The bug has been fixed in recent versions of glpk.

You may build glpk from sources by yourself. The GLPK distribution
tarball can be found on http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/ [via http] and
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glpk/ [via FTP]. For installation instructions see
file INSTALL. Note that most recent version is 4.50.

It was an unsuccessful attempt to measure the time using only standard
ANSI C functions. Currently glpk uses a configurable code which includes
a Posix-specific version as well.
