On further testing, this eats up a lot of cpu time, the following
should be better,

while(running && !XNextEvent(dpy, &ev)) {
        if(handler[ev.type])
        {
                {
                        time_t t;

                        t = time(NULL);
                        strftime(stext, sizeof stext - 1, "%a %e %b, %I:%M%p", localtime(&t));
            /* Depending on the implementation of strftime, stext might
             * not be null terminated. */
            stext[sizeof stext - 1] = '\0';
                        drawbar();
                }
                (handler[ev.type])(&ev); /* call handler */
        }
}
