Subject:  - (dtucker) [misc.c] Fall back to time(2) at runtime if
 clock_gettime(    CLOCK_MONOTONIC...) fails.  Some older versions of RHEL
 have the    CLOCK_MONOTONIC define but don't actually support it.  Found and
 tested    by Kevin Brott, ok djm.

  - (dtucker) [regress/Makefile regress/test-exec.sh] Don't try to use test -nt
    since some platforms (eg really old FreeBSD) don't have it.  Instead,
    run "make clean" before a complete regress run.  ok djm.
