It does, on platforms that support CPU timers.  It works on mine.

My guess (though I am by no means an expert) is that platforms
where the new code has problems are platforms where setitimer
has similar problems.  I'd be surprised if it were otherwise,
since kernels typically use the same implementation
strategy for both setitimer and timer_settime.
