for Laurent
  IO_Gettimeofday()    returning an integer with the microseconds
and
  IO_Gettimeofday_float()  returning a float in seconds
                           with your warning in the documentation

  -> problem: probably need librt for new timing function

Implement posix_openpt, grantpt, unlockpt and ptsname
  to allow usage of pseudo ttys
