Try linking to librt:

gcc -o myprog myprog.c -lrt

(also note that you have to put the -lrt flag after specifying the myprog.c source file!)

You just need to put `-lrt` *after* `myprog.c` and you could put `-o myprog` at last. – Basile Starynkevitch Oct 06 '12 at 21:00
@BasileStarynkevitch that's true. – Oct 06 '12 at 21:07
