- * The interval timer is used for profiling and for context switching in the
- * threaded build.  Though POSIX 1003.1b includes a standard interface for
- * such things, no one really seems to be implementing them yet.  Even
- * Solaris 2.3 only seems to provide support for @CLOCK_REAL@, whereas we're
- * keen on getting access to @CLOCK_VIRTUAL@.
- *
- * Hence, we often use the old-fashioned @setitimer@ that just about everyone
- * seems to support.  So much for standards.

-   non-POSIX extension prototypes requires _DARWIN_C_SOURCE on Mac OS X,
-   __BSD_VISIBLE on FreeBSD and DragonflyBSD, and _NetBSD_SOURCE on
-   NetBSD.  Otherwise, for example, code using pthread_setname_np(3) and
-   variants will not compile.  We must therefore define the additional
-   macros that expose non-POSIX APIs early, before any of the relevant
-   system headers are included via "Rts.h".
-
-   An alternative approach could be to write portable wrappers or stubs for all
-   the non-posix functions in a C-module that does not include "PosixSource.h",
-   and then use only POSIX features and the portable wrapper functions in all
-   other C-modules. */
