Currently parrot uses clock_gettime() unless the platform is darwin, in which it uses gettimeofday(). Any other esoteric platform that does not have clock_gettime() will currently not build on parrot.

A proper check for each function should be done at Configure.pl-time for these. Devel::NYTProf2 has already solved most of these issues, we should emulate that.
