The failure in alarm03, which by the way is only some times, is caused 
by the need to add a jiffie to the alarm time to cover the fact that 
the current time is not on a jiffie boundry.  If this was not done, 
the timer would expire early about 50% of the time.  Given this 
correction the timer will expire some where between the requested time 
and the requested time + one jiffie.  alarm(2), dealing with seconds, 
is bumping the return value by one when ever the return is not an even 
second, thus the 1 second longer than requested result.

In short, the test should allow the return value to be one higher than 
requested.
