Lets leave that for later.

Right now I want us to come up with a API design which handles
time correctly.

Once we have that in place, we can look at what it takes to get
it pushed into the real world.

So forget time_t and all that stuff for now, and lets make sure
realtime_t and its standard API does the right thing.

PS: And no: you don't need the kernel to offer the compat API's, you
can do that in your shared libc.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
