I applied the one-line patch mentioned in the mailing list threads.
But, alas, that change gave me a "0x1200 (Inst TLB miss)".

I guess that change isn't as harmless as it looks.

I was thinking of changing my calls to use the POSIX interface. But, does
the POSIX timers call down into the current implementation - and leave me
with the same issue?
