Unfortunately, this is illegal, but there are other methods of receiving time information that are more kosher. What I would attempt, were I doing anything that required knowledge of elapsed time, is the write the programs control structure such that all possible control paths contain equal numbers and kinds of instructions. The program's run-time will then be constant, and can be measured with a simple set-up. This sounds like a pain, and it is, but it worked for me last year with the gyro-chip. Good Luck!
