------------------------------+--------------------------------
 OSX Sierra (which came out last week) broke compilation in two ways:

    * It added a getentropy() function, but only if you include
 sys/random.h (which nobody else seems to require).
    * It added clock_gettime(), but uses a wider type for tv_nsec than
 tv_usec (why? Where does apple run that provides an "int" that holds up to
 1e6, but where you need a "long" to hold 1e9??).
    * It added clock_gettime(), but didn't add pthread_condattr_setclock()
 (whereas everybody else supports neither or both).

 My branch `osx_sierra_028` fixes both.  I'm going to merge it to master as
 low-risk so I can keep doing development, and ask for review on getting it
 into 028.
