I wonder about this separate gettimeofday() call. We already have
formatted_log_time which is used for CSV logs and freeform log lines
(stderr/syslog); if we introduce a separate gettimeofday() call here,
and the user has %n in freeform log and CSV logging is active, the
timings will diverge occasionally.
Maybe I'm worrying over nothing, because really what use case is there
for having the two log formats enabled at the same time? Yet somebody
went some lengths to ensure they are consistent; I think we should do
likewise here.
I'm happy to be outvoted on this, so consider this a -0.5 for this
particular implementation.
