COMMENTS:  
To ensure that code is portable across standards, the gettimeofday()  
function and its necessary structures and macros must be declared in  
sys/time.h rather than sysgtime.h. This is a "single-source" APAR.  
   

SOLUTION:  
Move the gettimeofday() prototype and all of the data types and macros  
that gettimeofday() needs from sysgtime.h to sys/time.h. sysgtime.h now  
includes sys/time.h, so no coding changes are necessary to retain  
functionality. However, all future code that uses gettimeofday() should  
include sys/time.h rather than sysgtime.h to conform to portability  
standards. This is a "single-source" APAR.
