[Click] Timer, the 2nd

[Eddie Kohler]

Do not call your Element Element.  That is asking for trouble (if in 
fact you are doing that).

If you are running Click on current Git/CVS code, you should call your 
run_timer() function run_timer(Timer *); but that shouldn't matter.

I think you may have left out something important in your code, because 
this should work.  I have attached a silly element that does what you 
want, and prints a stream of "A"s.
