Hi Toma,

that's not what I suggested (or at least meant to suggest): having
gettimeofday as an effective-target keyword (like setrlimit, mmap, and
others) is the way to go, just your previous implementation of
check_effective_target_gettimeofday was problematic/unreliable.

If you go this route, there's no need to modify target-supports-dg.exp
at all.

Besides: I forget to mention that new effective-target keywords need to
be documented in sourcebuild.texi.

Sorry for the confusion.
