GC timing in the VM

It occurs to me that, given most platforms can manage better than
millisceond resolution timing, we might usefully change ioMicroMSecs()
to ioMicroSecs() and keep our GC performance values a touch more
precisely. It's not called often (unless unfortunate macro #defs tie it
to ioMSecs() or similar) so unlikely to hurt performance. Does anyone
see problems?
