Summary 0000703: Add errno values for clock
Description The clock() function has failure cases specified (unavailable or unrepresentable processor time usage) but does not have error codes defined. As the resolution of #686 imposes a common real-world failure case on implementations using 32-bit clock_t, it seems desirable to have the cause of failure reported in errno.
Desired Action In the ERRORS section for clock(), replace the text:

"No errors are defined."

with the CX-shaded text:

"The clock() function shall fail if:

[EOVERFLOW]

the processor time used cannot be represented in an object of type clock_t."
