Guile version: 2.0.11
Machine type: x86_64-apple-darwin16.0.0

macOS 10.12 introduces the `clock_gettime` family of functions, with slight differences from the *BSD and Linux implementations.

The failure in linking is caused by a call at libguile/stime.c @ L841 to `clock_getcpuclockid`, which does NOT exist on macOS, while `_POSIX_CPUTIME` and `CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID` do exist.

I have an absolutely hideous patch[1] locally applied that gets things compiling (and get-internal-run-time seems to work), but is otherwise terrible from a readability and maintainability standpoint. That said, narrowing it down to that single call should help make this fix easier.

Cheers.
Rahul

Hi, this is fixed in 2.1.7 and now also in 2.0 git.  I guess a
subsequent 2.0.15 will include this fix.  Thanks for the report.
