It seems OK, roughly speaking, but I don't think that will achieve the  
platform independence goals of the Threading.h header. The type  
timespec is not necessarily a suitable one for use on all the  
different platforms we support. So even if it's an absolute time, we  
might want to use a double rather than a timespec. But we'd probably  
need to move currentTime from WebCore/platform/SystemTime.h to  
somewhere in JavaScriptCore/wtf to serve as a timebase.
