I have done tests using the C code appended to this email.

Indeed with the Darwin Kernel 7.0.0 (MacOS X), you don't get extra 
precision with the figures returned by getrusage(). I was mistaken by 
the potential of the data structure described in the man page (there's 
no info about the actual granularity there).

You can remove my wish (id=1937) for getrusage bindings from your 
database.

I just wanted a quick way to distinguish, on output, my bytecode 
profiles from native ones. This can of course be handled very easily 
with a preprocessor, I was just wondering if I had missed a flag in the 
style of Sys.interactive.

One could argue that since there exists some discrepancies such a flag 
should exist. However I doubt its usefulness in common practice (which 
is why I didn't file a feature wish for that one). Furthermore, if it 
doesn't exist, removing the last discrepancies becomes a must...

Thanks for your answers,

Daniel
