Thanks for the patch.  One issue, however, is that the testing I've seen from
cygwin indicates that the interface this clock depends on does not provide
micro-second resolution.  The test tries to ensure that the last
time measured is always greater than the last, and that was failing.  So
be aware that this clock might not work well.  Make sure you look at and
run libs/date_time/test/posix_time/testmicrosec_time_clock.cpp.
