Re: "getTicks() in ms" to add for WIN32 and Linux to commonc++?

[David Sugar]

I recall in reviewing recent changes in ccrtp, that Federico had to add a 
simulated gettimeofday function for supporting w32 builds.  So perhaps both 
of these functions, if needed for different things, should end up with a 
representation in the Common C++ 1.1 reorganized "missing" module for library 
functions missing from some platforms (missing.h/missing.cpp) ...
