I always liked the idea of moving to a shm or a local socket "clockd" 
interface. 

 (Under the hood, a UNIX domain socket or a 127/8 localhost socket is nothing 
more than merely a shm segment and two semiphore locks.)

A clockd interface was, in fact, part of the original plan.  Maybe make it the 
plan again?
