Hi David,

I think that os_posix.cpp is a good place to put a comment explaining why AIX and BSD have their own javaTimeNanos_info(). Stating something like "AIX and BSD have their own versions because their implementations of monotonic time have worked on those platforms." seems fine.

Thanks for doing this!
Harold
