Result is here:

Original code is in fechrono.cxx. Not super pretty, but representative of most mfe-based frontends
we see around here. A good example of why the old mfe.c structure no longer works so well for us.

After conversion to tmfe, we do not win a beauty contest yet, but the path for further
clean up and refactoring into better c++ is quite clear. (And it is very obvious where
the missing "event object" wants to be here)

K.O.
