C void speed_cyclecounter (unsigned p[2]);
C
C Get the pentium rdtsc cycle counter, storing the least significant word in
C p[0] and the most significant in p[1].
C
C cpuid is used to serialize execution.  On big measurements this won't be
C significant but it may help make small single measurements more accurate.
