Oh, I was not aware of this issue. Do you suggest to not use
QueryPerformanceCounter() on Windows to implement a monotonic clock?

The python-monotonic-time project uses GetTickCount64(), or
GetTickCount(), on Windows. GetTickCount64() was added to Windows
Seven / Server 2008. GetTickCount() overflows after 49 days.
QueryPerformanceCounter() has a better resolution than
GetTickCount[64]().
