  From my understanding of the "etime" subroutine, you will find similar
  function with the "mclock" routine included with AIX XL FORTRAN.  This
  routine provides the total of:
      a) elapsed user time of the current process, and
      b) elapsed user *and* system time of all child processes
  in 1/100ths of a second.
