The Boost implementation can be summarized as:

system_clock:

  mac = gettimeofday
  posix = clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME)
  win = GetSystemTimeAsFileTime

steady_clock:

  mac = mach_absolute_time
  posix = clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC)
  win = QueryPerformanceCounter

high_resolution_clock:

  * = { steady_clock, if available
        system_clock, otherwise }

Whether or not these implementations meet the specification is an
exercise left to the reader..
