289	xtime_cmp: use comparison not subtraction	phhodges	glassfordm	"{{{
Subtraction of integral types is prone to arithmetic
overflow.
It is not well-behaved for implementing comparison unless
we first cast both operands to a wider integral type or
assert that they fall in a narrower range.

Choose comparison order to slightly favour future timeouts,
or imminent timeouts in the same second?
