>Description:
time is defined as ::time instead of only as ::std::time
(same for other functions in time.h).  This is a problem since it causes ambiguities/conflicts when a user wants to do something like

using mynamespace::time;
time t;

>How-To-Repeat:
The following code compiles:

#include <ctime>
int main ()
{
  int k = time(NULL);
  return 0;
};
