I wasn't for a moment suggesting that it was.

OK, I'll have a crack at this over the weekend following David's
hints.

Looks straightforward. I'll patch the event loop in window.cc to set
some static flag in hires on suspend and/or resume events, and
reinitialise in hires::usecs iff the flag is set.

Let me know if I'm well off track here.
