I pushed 2-5,7,8 leaving 1, 6, & 9 for further examination/changes.

I went and looked deeper for 6 - the code was added by commit id
'3ec12898' when the logging API's needed to generate timestamps.  The
commit message has this:

 virTimeFieldsNowRaw  replacements for gmtime(), convert a timestamp
 virTimeFieldsThenRaw into a broken out set of fields. No localtime()
                      replacement is provided, because converting to
                      local time is not practical with only async signal
                      safe APIs.

So yeah - I think it's safe to remove the "deadcode", but will give it a
bit of (ahem) time for other viewpoints

Tks,

John
