I think it's probably wise to keep the macro. If we ever rethink this
again, we'll be glad we kept it. Similarly, IS_ZERO is a good idea
even if it would work with just compare-to-zero. I'm almost tempted
to suggest you define instr_time as a struct with a uint64 field,
just to help keep us honest about that.

Code and comments are inconsistent about whether it's SET_SECOND or
SET_SECONDS. I think I prefer the latter, but don't care that much.

Didn't examine 0004 in any detail, but the others look good to go
other than these nits.
