No need for highly accurate time.  Just take a good photo of the star near
the limb of the sun which includes other nearby stars not near the limb.  
Compare the photo to one of the same stars taken six months earlier (or
later). Is one of the stars of that constellation out of place in the
eclipse photo?  The one near the sun's limb?  By how much?  Does that
number agree with relativity (or Newtonian mechanics)?

Ideally the stars involved (esp. the one near the limb of the sun should
be well-known stars, not an obscure background star, but we don't get to
pick and choose, I guess.
