The C standard undefines behavior when signed integers overflow. The
compiler toolchain has become more adept at detecting this and taking
advantage of faster undefined behavior. At the current time this has the
unfortunate effect of the clock stopping after 24 days of uptime.
clang makes no distinction between -fwrapv and -fno-strict-overflow. gcc
does treat them differently but -fwrapv is mature in gcc and is the
behavior are actually expecting.
