returns a time with 1s off its correct value.
The reason for this bug is the line with ::std::time(&t);
that overwrites the second value just a few µs after the call to gettimofday. This new second value is used together with the fs value from gettimeofday.
Example: tv from gettimofday: 12345s/999998 µs t from std::time: 12346s resulting time: 12346s/999998 µs !!!!
Question: Why this call to std::time? I commented it out and it worked.

Hello Martin, This bug has been fixed in cvs. We now use a single call to gettimeofday. That result is broken down into a struct tm using either std::localtime or std::gmtime. We also set the fractional seconds in the time_type with that same timeval result. Bart
