Michael, Stephen, could you take a look at the issue we've got here?

Guenter, my comment is below.

Hm, this was unexpected twist. I've submitted not a single patch with optional
clock API usage. It was first time I've got a comment like this, that the
API isn't cross-platform. As I see it this isn't the patch problem, but the
platforms/common clock bug. The platforms code must have been submitted before
the optional clock API was introduced or the API hasn't been properly
implemented or we don't understand something.

Stephen, Michael could you clarify the situation with the
cross-platformness of the optional clock API.
