Describe recent changes to use realtime clocks if available,

when appropriate; also, gettime now returns void.

        * Version 5.3.1.
 
+       * NEWS: Describe user-visible change to dd.
+       * src/Makefile.am (dd_LDADD, shred_LDADD, nanosec_libs):
+       Remove $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME).  These functions now use
+       gethrxtime instead.
+       * src/dd.c: Include gethrxtime.h, xtime.h.
+       (start_time): Now of type xtime_t, not struct timespec.
+       (print_stats, main): Use gethrxtime rather than gettime.
+       * src/ls.c (time): Remove obsolete decl.
+       (get_current_time): gettimeofday always returns 0, so don't
+       check its result.
+       * src/shred.c: Include gethrxtime.h.
+       (isaac_seed): Use gethrxtime rather than a mishmash.
+       * src/touch.c (time): Remove obsolete decl.
+
+       * tests/misc/split-fail: Don't assume that the current host
+       supports integers wider than 32 bits.  Fix comment typo.
+       * tests/od/x8: Likewise.
+
+       * src/chown-core.c (enum RCH_status): Remove trailing comma,
+       as it's not valid in standard C89.
+
+2005-02-15  Jim Meyering  <jim@meyering.net>
+
        * src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add case/definition for S_MAGIC_XFS
        so that file systems of type `xfs' are recognized as such.
        * src/fs.h: Regenerate.

+       * gethrxtime.h, gethrxtime.c, xtime.h: New files.
+       * timespec.h (gettime): Return void, since it always
+       succeeds now.  All uses changed.
+       * gettime.c (gettime) Likewise.
+       [HAVE_NANOTIME]: Prefer nanotime.
+       Assume gettimeofday succeeds, as POSIX requires.
+       Assime time () succeeds, since other code already does.
+       * xnanosleep.c: Include xtime.h and gethrxtime.h, not xalloc.h.
+       (timespec_subtract): Remove.
+       (NANOSLEEP_BUG_WORKAROUND): New constant.
+       (xnanosleep): Use gethrxtime rather than gettime; this simplifies
+       things considerably.  Use it only on GNU/Linux hosts, since the
+       workaround shouldn't be needed elsewhere.
