What platform did you (and Robert) try this on?  DOS? Windows? what
version?

If you tried this on Windows, try on plain DOS and see if the results
are any different.

The new version of itimer is known to have problems on Windows (though
they aren't supposed to be that grave), but Tom Demmer, who made the
changes, said that the old version had problems there as well.
