Re: cputime for Windows octave-2.9.16s is strange

[David Bateman]

cputime. tic and toc were moved to be built-in functions in 2.9.16 as
for times shorter than 20ms, if was the symbol table code for the
benchmarking code itself that was limiting the time resolution. That is
something like "tic; sum(ones(4,1)); toc" or "t=cputime();
sum(ones(4,1)); cputime()-t" was limited by the symbol table code for
the tic, toc and cputime functions whereas sum is a builtin.

When doing this it appears I made a mistake in the windows code.. I
believe the appropriate fix is the attached.
