Dude, it's MS Windows.
It does all _sorts_ of stuff that it shouldn't.
Having sleep() take orders of magnitude longer than it should
is not an uncommon complaint for MS Windows users. There was a

few weeks ago. IIRC, disabling some other program or service
fixed it for one MS victem.

That part is new. I'm pretty sure other people who complained
about sleep() not returning in a reasonable amount of time saw
it all of the time.
