It turns out I misunderstood how date.today() worked [1] and issue9079.diff introduced significant change in behavior. Bringing timeofday into core rather than _time.c also introduced several complications. As a result it makes sense to start with just internal restructuring: bring gettimeofday into core and reuse it in time.time and datetime.datetime.now. The new patch, issue9079a.diff contains no user visible changes.
