|   ah, good point ! Sorry I never use Windows

I had to modify the timer code in testlimits.c to use clock() rather than getimeofday(), but with that 
modification, it ran on Win32 without errors. Should the timing code be made conditional (as it is in 
xmllint.c), or would the usage clock() be acceptable on most platforms?

|   Thanks for the report in any case !

| Windows files
| that would be appreciated :-)

It's been a few years since I've submitted anything to libxml2. Should I send the modifications to the list 
or to you? Should diffs be made against the git trunk, or against the 2.9.0 tarball?
