Patch to add function declarations to core.stdc.time.

Fairly simple. These functions aren't declared when std.c.time is imported.
They are not implemented by MSVC, as of VS 2010 (I just looked at the headers,
didn't run the compiler).

Attached is a patch that adds them under a `version ( Posix )` block.
Comment 1 Bernard Helyer 2010-05-03 21:11:44 UTC 
And justification for placing them under 'Posix':

Comment 2 Lars T. Kyllingstad 2010-05-04 01:36:48 UTC 
They are in the core.sys.posix.time module. :)

All POSIX extensions to standard C, as well as other POSIX headers, are in the core.sys.posix package.
Comment 3 Walter Bright 2010-05-04 11:16:53 UTC 
I agree. The core.stdc package should only include Standard C declarations. Posix stuff should go in the posix package.
