Just to be clear: the code isn't safe if the tolerances are too
narrow. The code I wrote assumes that the calls to (current-seconds)
and (gettimeofday) occur on the same second when determining the size
of time_t, and that the calls to (current-inexact-milliseconds) and
(gettimeofday) occur within 100 microseconds when determining the size
of suseconds_t. Of course, you can't guarantee this.
