Implement a workaround for a long-standing problem in
libi386's time(), caused by a qemu bug.  The bug might
be present in other BIOSes, too.

qemu either does not simulate the AT RTC correctly or
has a broken BIOS 1A/02 implementation, and will return
an incorrect value if the RTC is read while it is being
updated.

The effect is worsened by the fact that qemu's INT 15/86
function ("wait" a.k.a. usleep) is non-implmeneted or
broken and returns immediately, causing beastie.4th to
spin in a tight loop calling the "read RTC" function
millions of times, triggering the problem quickly.

Therefore, we keep reading the BIOS value until we get
the same result twice.  This change fixes beastie.4th's
countdown under qemu.
