extreme nitpick: Captialize first word in a sentence.

Since we are now removing all references to clock_nanosleep, perhaps add 
note here indicating that nanosleep is the default, i.e. something like

"use POSIX timers instead of clock_nanosleep"

Not sure if you really need the trailing comment, but I'll leave that up to 
John (I'd drop it)

As a side-observation that does not have anything to do with your patch, it 
seems like there's a lovely mix of spaces and TABS in this file (i.e. 
starting a line with a few spaces, then TABs and then possibly more spaces 
for final alignment).

Could be my mailclient pulling my foot though, I just found it a bit 
strange.

A part form my minor nitpicks, nice change!
