A shame that visual studio comes with broken includes, but fortunately we
indeed don't need it anymore, so it's removed.

Well, Microsoft boasts itself with 100% bug compatibility back to the
earliest windows releases, so they better maintain it :)
The comment was just noting that sys/timeb.h, which is pretty obscure to
unix programmers, actually is an xsi legacy function so is not a windows-only
function. It is, however, almost exclusively used on windows only, as
windows lacks all the more advanced functionality (as the ugly code now in
use shows).
Anyways, thanks for pointing this out, and testing it!
