    1.11 +** Description:	API to interval timing functions of NSPR.
    1.12 +**
    1.13 +**
    1.14 +** NSPR provides interval times that are independent of network time
    1.15 +** of day values. Interval times are (in theory) accurate regardless
    1.16 +** of host processing requirements and also very cheap to acquire. It
    1.17 +** is expected that getting an interval time while in a synchronized
    1.18 +** function (holding one's lock).
