To be fair, Linux isn't "screwing up" -- the time-to-sleep being
passed to pthread_cond_wait is a *real long time*. Solaris must have
some limit as to how long it'll let a thread condwait for, where Linux
doesn't ... so Solaris returns an error while Linux just ... waits. :-)
Am I the only one who finds this funny? :-)
