2. Drift of cyclic timers (armed by set_timer()):

Due to rounding errors and the drift adjustment code, the fixed
increment which is precalculated when the timer is set up and added on
rearm, I see creeping deviation from the timeline.

I have a patch lined up to base the rearm on human (nsac) units, so this
effect will go away. But this is waste of time until (1.) is not solved.

George ???

Could I (we) see what you have in mind?
