sleep(0) is a common construct used by applications that want to trigger
the scheduler. sched_yield() might make more sense, but only appeared in
POSIX.1-2001 and so plenty of example code still uses the sleep(0) form.
This wouldn't normally be a problem, but it means that event-driven
applications that are merely trying to avoid starving other processes may
actually end up sleeping due to having large timer_slack values. Special-
casing this seems reasonable.
