+Remove an unneeded goto in the decompressor; it turns out that the
+state of ip_ after decompression (or attempted decompresion) is
+completely irrelevant, so we don't need the trailer.
+
+Performance is, as expected, mostly flat -- there's a curious ~3–5%
+loss in the “lsp” test, but that test case is so short it is hard to say
+anything definitive about why (most likely, it's some sort of
+unrelated effect).

+Speed up decompression by caching ip_.
+
+It is seemingly hard for the compiler to understand that ip_, the current input
+pointer into the compressed data stream, can not alias on anything else, and
+thus using it directly will incur memory traffic as it cannot be kept in a
+register. The code already knew about this and cached it into a local
+variable, but since Step() only decoded one tag, it had to move ip_ back into
+place between every tag. This seems to have cost us a significant amount of
+performance, so changing Step() into a function that decodes as much as it can
+before it saves ip_ back and returns. (Note that Step() was already inlined,
+so it is not the manual inlining that buys the performance here.)
+
+The wins are about 3–6% for Core 2, 6–13% on Core i7 and 5–12% on Opteron
+(for plain array-to-array decompression, in 64-bit opt mode).
+
+There is a tiny difference in the behavior here; if an invalid literal is
+encountered (ie., the writer refuses the Append() operation), ip_ will now
+point to the byte past the tag byte, instead of where the literal was
+originally thought to end. However, we don't use ip_ for anything after
+DecompressAllTags() has returned, so this should not change external behavior
+in any way.
+
+Microbenchmark results for Core i7, 64-bit (Opteron results are similar):

+Fix public issue #38: Make the microbenchmark framework handle
+properly cases where gettimeofday() can stand return the same
+result twice (as sometimes on GNU/Hurd) or go backwards
+(as when the user adjusts the clock). We avoid a division-by-zero,
+and put a lower bound on the number of iterations -- the same
+amount as we use to calibrate.
+
+We should probably use CLOCK_MONOTONIC for platforms that support
+it, to be robust against clock adjustments; we already use Windows'
+monotonic timers. However, that's for a later changelist.
