--- Comment #2 from John Haxby <john.haxby at oracle.com> ---
I agree, I had thought the same thing overnight.   There are possible
cases where CLOCK_BOOTIME is defined at compile time but it not
available at run time so the fallback is definitely needed.  (I
actually have the opposite case: CLOCK_BOOTIME is available at run time
but not defined at compile time, but that's my problem, not yours.)

Your patch has a logical problem though: it won't compile if
CLOCK_BOOTTIME is defined but CLOCK_MONOTONIC is.   In practice this
won't happen, but perhaps you either want to surround the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC call with a #ifdef or you want to remove the test for
defined(CLOCK_BOOTTIME) from the surrounding #if.
