Maybe I missed the answer, but how do you handle timestamp with an unspecified starting point like os.times() or time.clock()? Should we leave these function unchanged? My motivation for the PEP 410 is to provide nanosecond resolution for time.clock_gettime(time.CLOCK_MONOTONIC) and time.clock_gettime(time.CLOCK_REALTIME).
