Re: [PATCH 8/9] autoconf: Check for timer_settime

> From: Jonas 'Sortie' Termansen <sortie@maxsi.org>
> 
> This function will be used in a following commit.
> 
> The timer_settime function is provided in librt on some systems. We
> already use this library sometimes to get clock_gettime, so rework the
> logic so we don't link with it twice.
> 
> This function was not previously used by git. This can cause trouble for
> people on systems without timer_settime if they only rely on
> config.mak.uname. They will need to set NO_TIMER_SETTIME manually.
> 
> Add proper replacement function macros for setitimer and timer_settime
> that implement timer_settime as a wrapper for setitimer. In this way, if
> the system has setitimer but not timer_settime then we will be able to
> call timer_create, timer_settime, and timer_delete correctly and it will
> wrap to setitimer under the hood. This will be used in the following
> commit.
