Well, I guess I don't know quite as much as I thought I did.  This
code has always worked just fine for me before, and is based directly
on benchmarking code I've seen and used before.  The only thing I've
changed is the code for doing the timing, which is correct as far as
I can tell.  It runs fine on UNIX boxes, but I changed the timing code
since I didn't think djgpp supports the UNIX style timing calls.
Unless DJGPP is doing something wierd to the individual arithmetic
operations (ie, doing optimizations despite being given the -O0 flag),
I've nary a clue why it's not behaving properly.
