I'd like to finally present a fix/improvement for bugs #64370, #64633, 
#65626 (I think), etc...  Regarding microtime() resolution on Windows, and 
have it included in 5.4 also!

I had a couple Twitter messages with Pierre and Anatol in October about how 
to restore old behavior (and fix issues), and didn't implement my idea right 
then... :-/  I almost got around to it this spring after learning 
*something* (don't remember) that allows a simpler solution, at least.

Anyway, hopefully it'll be OK for 5.4 since it's Windows-only, similar to 
what we had previously (w/o issues!), and microtime() has been kinda useless 
on XP-7 since 5.4.14.

I haven't looked at it again yet now, but it should be done quickly. :-) 
Just to put "on paper" what's in my mind and verify it...


Thanks,
Matt
