First: Uniqid test (tests/strings/001.phpt) failes for cygwin because
the time for gettimeofday() is only updated once per second.
I suggest we should change the test to use more entropy.
Second: We should consider more entropy being default even though
it is slower.
Third: the function is available even when HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY
is not available. This should be changed (is on out todo) or the function
should return a unique value for such platforms, too.
Fourth: We should split ./tests/strings/001.phpt. One for the string
functions and one for uniqid().
