You lose precision here using time(), I think the way to go are the
timeradd(), timercmp(), timersub(), etc. functions that lives in
sys/time.h. I have a patch for those here that I want to test.
Patches welcome :)
The inititial timer code was incomplete and IMO too complicated for what
it did. AFAIRK at the time I started hacking on that there wasn't even
a single user of that API.
This patch turns the timers into simple and more importantly working
timers which with 1-sec resolution. They might easily be adjusted or
improved later on.

Agreed, from what I remeber about ulogd2 and our discussions there
doesn't seem to be any need for higher precision. I'll look into
the details later.
