It is very bad, that the function with such attractive name has different meaning on Windows and Unix. I'm sure that virtually all uses of clock() are broken because its behavior on other platform than used by the author of the code. Adding a DeprecationWarning and finally removing it looks right thing to me. But we should keep it while 2.7 and versions older than 3.3 are in use.
