Enabling boost::date_time::posix_time::nanosec().

Hi.

Is there a quick way to determine whether one's operating system supports the nanosecond precision clock?

Also; I realise that BOOST_DATE_TIME_HAS_NANOSECONDS needs to be defined to use nanosec() method.  But; should I be able (if my operating system supports it) to define support for nanosecond time resolution at installation time?  I.e. would it suffice to use a bjam commandline parameter defining nanosecond support when building the Boost date_time libraries?  

Also; how do I configure nanosecond support for subsequent compilation of programs which use Boost and require nanosecond posix_time resolution?

Greetings,
Andre.
