There seems to be some confusion here.  The liblo-devel thread you  
referenced earlier appears to discuss an experimental high-level  
feature that implements a scheduler for liblo.  Its been a while  
since I actually coded with liblo, but if you check the docs, the  
time-tag is available as a pair of uint_32 in the lo_timetag struct.   
You should have no problem sending a stream of time-tagged bundles  
using that.

Most implementations provide the timetag in a more or less equivalent  
format.  As for the time stamps themselves, they can be generated off  
of gettimeofday() or however you see fit.
