Thanks. My main PC still runs the above test for more than 15000 counts.
So, I tried another PC which CPU is Core i5 540M and could reproduce
the issue about 1 time per a few hundreds count.
I also tried to run sleep 0.1 instead of true, then, the issue happens
1 time per a few decades counts.
I'll look into this problem. Thanks for the report.
