Arjen, I could use some advice on this problem. The "right" fix wasn't very clear
to me.

The new variable type is called "double", but its really a fixed point number, with
magic done by sys_var_thd_microtime.

I'm working on an absolutely minimal patch that just changes the assert to all ULL
and DOUBLE values. But I suspect the name of GET_DOUBLE will confuse folks in
the future.
