I noticed your gists used time.h. Coincidentally I have just been fooling around with sys/time.h because I find the former to be unreliable. From what I have read on the web many other hackers share the same sentiment. I'm surprised to see you using it in code like this, or have I missed something?
I just copied the profile code from bsdnt. I guess the reason it uses it is that it simpler and/or more portable. In this case, it does not matter much. I use the functions from sys/time.h when I do more serious profiling.

After more fooling around I see what you mean. The Open Group has one version of it, my Linux man pages serve me another. I skimmed over the GNU C website, they say that the struct timezone type is obsolete and should be avoided. Happy days.
