Re: Blink-cursor-mode bug

[Dave Love]

It turns out that the problems I saw with the blinking cursor were due
to a configure problem.  This meant HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY was undefined,
resulting in `current-time', at least, always returning 0 for the
milliseconds component.  I upped the blinking delay to 2s, expecting
that to work without milliseconds, but it didn't.

Thus it seems that the blinking cursor doesn't work on any system that
lacks gettimeofday, at least, and maybe ones that don't offer
millisecond timing.  Maybe that breaks other timer-related things.
