[PATCH] timers for kFreeBSD



Hi,

Attached patch adds a new implementation of timers for kFreeBSD.  It
is heavily based on the Linux/NPTL counterpart.

I've verified that this fixes #642112 (timer_settime fails on kfreebsd
when timeout approaches max(time_t)) and #662018 (No support for
CLOCK_MONOTONIC).  It also addresses a great deal (but not all) of
#665287 (<bits/time.h> advertises unsupported clockid_t types).

It's also likely that it fixes some of the problems outlined in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-bsd/2012/03/msg00149.html

Review and testing is much welcome, please do if you can.

Please don't commit to glibc-bsd repository yet.  I haven't finished
testing it myself.

Thanks
