executables by default, we will produce __lshrti3 in sched_clock() which is

Applied - but maybe we should just add lshrti3 instead?  We already have
ashldi3, ashrdi3 and lshrdi3.

Too slow I think. If we are doing 128-bit arithmetic, it should only be for tricky things that we are optimizing to go real fast. In this case, we don't want to be making function calls.

Well that is my $0.02
