uclock() has been fixed in the DJCPP LIBC 2.04 code late last year
when running under W2K and XP.

The fix has meant that the accuracy of uclock() is approx 55mS as it
now uses the TOD tick for the timeing on 2K/XP as some of the low
level API calls fail on 2K/XP in order to get a more accurate timer.
