--- Comment #6 from Jaak Ristioja <jaak at ristioja dot ee> ---
I mean when I sleep for UINT64_MAX hours/years/millenia, you can't possibly
wrap that into a single nanosleep call due to the limitations of the type
time_t of the tv_sec parameter of the first argument to nanosleep. One
obviously can not get around using loop.

Additionally, the nanosleep code is also missing proper EINTR handling, which
again could break the sleep.

Reopening.
