Actually I realised I could simply check that the values are correct by
checking with GetTickCount() each time I call QueryPerformanceCounter()...
now the question is what would happen... should I throw an exception ?
unlikely... should I set some flag to LEAP_DETECTED ? should I just take
GetTickCount()'s time silently ?
