Remember usleep can usually be replaced by a sleep call with the time
divided by a thousand or something like that. Anyway, if I remember
correctly, one of the contrib or client programs on the X11R4
distribution tape has a usleep implemented with setitimer (check xmh
or Xwinstones). Wasn't the only call to usleep in life routine for xlock
anyway?
