Maybe that isn’t safe, since later looking at time.h on 11.0 and on 11.1, the latter has a definition for clock_nanosleep() in that block, but the former does not.

__POSIX_VISIBLE has a different purpose and can't be used for this.  It's part
of a way for the application to request a strict namespace of certain versions
of POSIX, ANSI C, etc.

And, clock_nanosleep was MFC’d into 11-stable in-between the two, at revision 317618.  So, not a precise match there, but >= 1100513 should be safe.

Yes, this is exactly what you want.  Actually, what you /really/ want is for the
committer to remember to bump __FreeBSD_version when he added the call, but I
forgot.  :(
