The latest version of itimer.c I posted here some time ago still had one 
subtle bug, which only raised its ugly head when SIGPROF and SIGALRM are 
used together, *and* you start and stop the alaram timer several times in 
a program.

The version below corrects this bug.

DJ, I'm not sure what version is in your source tree, so I'm sending the 
full source of itimer.c instead of a patch.

   BUGS: ONLY ONE AT A TIME, first pass code
   This software may be freely distributed, no warranty.

   Changed to work with SIGALRM & SIGPROF by Tom Demmer.
   Gotchas:
     - It relies on uclock(), which does not work under Windows 95.
     - It screws up debuggers for reasons I cannot figure out.
     - Both is true for the old version, too.
