I would rather say the *result* of both functions seems to be identical,
while their descriptions are a bit different - at least in the V2 SDK.

GetCurrentTime: "... number of milliseconds that have elapsed since the 
                 system was booted."
GetTickCount:   "... number of milliseconds that have elapsed since the
                 system was started."
