Ian Abbott 605fd55655 Fix use of INSN_GTOD so it works on 64-bit platforms.
A struct timeval is not the same size as a pair of lsampl_t's for 64-bit,
so can't point 'data' in a comedi_insn to a struct timeval and expect it
to work!

/*
This example shows how to use instructions, i.e., comedi_insns.
Using instructions directly, as in this example, is not recommended
for the beginner. Use the higher-level functions such as
comedi_data_read(), comedi_data_write(), etc., as demonstrated
in the inp, outp, and dio examples. Then, if you need the
additional flexibility that using instructions directly
provides, study this example and the implementations of
comedi_data_read(), etc.

* analog input, and the another gettimeofday() call.

* (Note: The gettimeofday() value is obtained using an INSN_GTOD

* 32-bits even on 64-bit systems.)
