While waiting on builds to test some new features, I found an elderly ThinkPad
that built the SKS trunk with no problem, albeit very slowly. I gave it a copy
of the databases to work on. It is now reconciling and caught up instead of
dying as soon as recon tried to do anything with PTree.

So... SKS is running on Windows with Cygwin, even though I can't repeat the
build on a clean Cygwin install :-( (something else to work on)

Yes, Phil. Your patch seems to have solved the clocking issue also on Windows.
