Looks like Le_Forgeron not only entered the issue, but already did a thorough
analysis; I can only agree with all his conclusions: It should be a matter of
../configure identifying that CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID isn't available, and in
that case not setting HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME, but HAVE_GETRUSAGE instead; as the
code seems to be well prepared for dealing with clock_gettime() being
unavailable, issues worse than possibly misleading statistics are not to be
expected.

So no need to loathe freebsd for this :)
