Solaris does not add a "_" to kernel variables.   It defines
the kernel variables "tickadj", "dosynctodr" and, "noprintf".
It does not define "tick".

The default tickadj value is 10000 us.   

I don't know what to use for tick.  Does anyone have any ideas.
What about sysconf(_SC_CLK_TC)?

settimeofday only set the second part of the time you must use adjtime
to set the micro second part of the time.

Sun had fixed gettimeofday to return the full micro second time.
Solaris 2.0 only return the time to 10 ms.

I am fairly close to having a working version of xntpd for Solaris 2.1.

Would anyone like to try it out before I send Mills the patches?
