Hi Luke,

You pass in a Service-Control-Manager-Handle, not a
service-handle, so it can't be service-delete. It could of
course be scman-del... which would be quite crazy.
(includind the fact, that this is done by srvmgr, which
hasn't any means to add/del a service...)

But it was all my fault. I copied cli_svc.c:svc_close()
over to svc_unknown_3... and guess what... I changed
everything except the Opcode...

After that I was more successful: You pass in a scman_hnd,
and get back some other handle...I don't know yet, what it
is good for... I added an appropiate server-side
implementation and srvmgr.exe got a bit further, but now it
calls opcode 11 on a service-handle. Maybe more soon.
(I'm pressing the "Startup"-button in Services in srvmgr)

The patch contains:
- complete server and client-side implementation of
  SVC_UNKNOWN_3 (yet no idea, what it is, but we have it)
- --with-privatedir=... from HEAD is now completely in TNG
- merged some things from HEAD into lib/time.c
  PLEASE DON'T run indent on lib/time.c !

- dito for param/loadparm.c
