I didn't test anything;
It was a listing of existing NTP timepps includes code,
and a example / question to Martin & Rob, about what / how they
were trying to accomplish NTP's inclusion of a time pps header file
{like the ones included for sun / solaris and win NT)
for generic linux {that apparently also doesn't usually have
the necessary file}.
