dnl See if gettimeofday clobbers the static buffer that localtime uses
dnl for its return value.  The gettimeofday function from Mac OS X 10.0.4
dnl (i.e., Darwin 1.3.7) has this problem.
dnl
dnl If it does, then arrange to use gettimeofday and localtime only via
dnl the wrapper functions that work around the problem.
