Because I could not reproduce the bug concerning gettimeofday out of
a complex program where it is used. Probably it works correctly. But
then I would like to know why comparison of two floating-point numbers
leads to different results: t0 is *exactly* the same as t1, nevertheless
the condition t0 > t1 is true (sometimes). That is the question.
