Nothing so exotic, just some bugs (sigh).

The version I tested had "if (rc < 0) errno=EINTR" and the arithmetic
for the remainder was just plain wrong.  This returned a negative
remainder which caused select to fail next time round with invalid
paramters, which the function converted into errno=EINTR.  Amazingly,
this worked!

The following works better for me.

		-Daz.

int nanosleep(const struct timespec *req, struct timespec *rem)
{
       int rc, saverrno;
       extern int errno;
       struct timeval tstart, tstop, tremain, time2wait;

       TIMESPEC_TO_TIMEVAL(&time2wait, req)
       gettimeofday(&tstart, NULL);
       rc = select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, &time2wait);
       saverrno = errno;
       gettimeofday (&tstop, NULL);

       if (rc == -1) {
               tremain.tv_sec = time2wait.tv_sec - (tstop.tv_sec -
tstart.tv_sec);
               tremain.tv_usec = time2wait.tv_usec - (tstop.tv_usec -
tstart.tv_usec);
               tremain.tv_sec += tremain.tv_usec / 1000000L;
               tremain.tv_usec %= 1000000L;
       } else {
                tremain.tv_sec = 0;
                tremain.tv_usec = 0;
       }
       TIMEVAL_TO_TIMESPEC(&tremain, rem)

      if (rc == -1)
              errno = saverrno;
      return(rc);
}

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
