Hi Craig,

I noticed you changed the signature of gettimeofday in sys/time.h. According to the Open Group specification the type of the second argument should void* or am I missing something? Here's the URL: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/gettimeofday.html

Hi Ken,

Thanks for catching this. I had forgotten about:

http://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2007/msg00785.html

I have changed the prototype back and changed the prototype in libc/syscalls/sysgettod.c to match.
