Update your RTEMS sources (e.g. from rtems-4-8-branch in RTEMS CVS).

The declaration of gettimeofday() in sys/time.h had been changed to
comply with POSIX, but your version of RTEMS still contains the old
(non-POSIX compliant) version of it. 

@Joel: Do we have a snapshot tarball from rtems-4-8-branch, which has
these changes inside? I don't think so.
