/**

 * @brief Class used for synchronizing the simulation events to a real-time

 * "wall clock" using Posix Clock functions.

 *

 * Enable this synchronizer using:

 *

 *   DefaultValue::Bind ("Synchronizer", "WallClockSynchronizer");

 *

 * before calling any simulator functions.

 *

 * The simulation clock is maintained as a 64-bit integer in a unit specified

 * by the user through the TimeStepPrecision::Set function. This means that

 * it is not possible to specify event expiration times with anything better

 * than this user-specified accuracy.  

 *

 * There are a couple of more issues at this level.  Posix clocks provide

 * access to several clocks we could use as a wall clock.  We don't care about

 * time in the sense of 0430 CEST, we care about some piece of hardware that

 * ticks at some regular period.  The most accurate posix clock in this

 * respect is the CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID clock.  This is a high-resolution

 * register in the CPU.  For example, on Intel machines this corresponds to

 * the timestamp counter (TSC) register.  The resolution of this counter will

 * be on the order of nanoseconds.

 *

 * Now, just because we can measure time in nanoseconds doesn't mean we can

 * put our process to sleep to nanosecond resolution.  We are eventualy going

 * to use the function clock_nanosleep () to sleep until a simulation Time

 * specified by the caller. 

 *

 * MORE ON JIFFIES, SLEEP, PROCESSES, etc., as required

 *

 * Nanosleep takes a struct timespec as an input so we have to deal with

 * conversion between Time and struct timespec here.  They are both 

 * interpreted as elapsed times.
