Description:
------------
there are two questions:
first:      usleep(214748000009);
            usleep(214749000009);

second:      usleep(-1);
             usleep(-214748000009);


Actual result:
--------------
first:   usleep(214748000009) wait for a long time (I am   not sure hong long?)
         usleep(214749000009) wait for 1 second

         usleep(-214748000009) wait for 0 second

While I agree, this function should not allow using negative values (fixed in CVS), float values are ok, as long as they are autoconverted to a valid integer.
That's where the problem comes from: float -> int convertion may end up with negative integer value, even though float value was positive.
