Here's my latest - I simply convert to microseconds first and work in
a 64-bit int.  That gives us more room than a clock_t holds ticks, so
we have no worries there.

The test run, after running for half an hour, looked like this:
The time now is 03/13/07 07:21:00.501125
Maximum value of usec is 999999
Maximum errors are 0.019900 and -0.061150

/*
Thanks to Rod Pemberton for the math for the clock frequency.
The exact calculation is as follows:
   4 * ((4.5Mhz * 455) / 572) = 14.31818... MHz
(4.5Mhz US TV bandwith/channel, 455 colorburst phase changes/line,
 572 total lines/frame including sync)

   14.318Mhz / 12 = 1.1931818... Mhz
(The clock has a divisor of 12)

   1.1931818... Mhz / 65536 ~= 18.2065Hz
(65536 cycles per tick)

Remember that clock() multiplies by 5!
