AIUI with the clock API the idiomatic thing is that any optionality is
handled at the point where the clock is acquired - if the clock is
optional you end up with NULL which in the clock API is a dummy clock
and ignored.  The rest of the code then doesn't need to worry about any
of this stuff and the handling can only be in one place.
