#819 made me look at this.

The setalarm function currenty uses setitimer(3). But POSIX-1.2017 states:

Applications should use the timer_gettime() and timer_settime() functions instead of the obsolescent getitimer() and setitimer() functions, respectively.

And indeed, in POSIX-1.2024, those functions are gone. So we need to update setalarm to use the new functions where available.
