o Remove ONLY_FOR_ARCHS limitation by adding timing support other
than RDTSC registers from Pentium. After a reminder by Garrett Wollman <wollman@FreeBSD.org> [1] that FreeBSD has a gethrtime() similar function, added experimental support for FreeBSD clock_gettime(2) which should work in all FreeBSD supported ARCHes o Add notes in both DESCR and PKGMESSAGE that there might be precision differences since this is experimental code Reviewed by: portmgr (silence/no objections) Submitted by: wollman [1]

Do not forget to add a cron(8) job with step 4 to periodically
adjust clockspeed's drift rate. Once a week should be more than
adequate.

+A port to non-i386 platforms was done using the clock_gettime(2)
+function. Since this is somewhat experimental, there might be some
+tiny precision differences from the i386 platform versions. You
+have been warned!
