Well I feel stupid. POSIX 2008 withdrew usleep in favor of nanosleep because
it is a better interface: for starters, nanosleep can reliably request
intervals longer than one second while usleep cannot. POSIX 2001 is clear that
usleep (1000000) may fail with EINVAL, and modern mingw happens to be one of
those systems (apparently, mingw has implemented usleep since the time that
Bruno first documented in pastposix-functions/usleep.texi that it was missing;
also, looking at the assembly, it looks like mingw fails to set errno to
EINVAL, but just blindly returns without sleeping). But using nanosleep is
problematic in that it requires external libraries on some platforms, so usleep
is still preferable in unit tests. So, now that I've actually tested stat-time-
tests on mingw, I will be applying this.

Subject: [PATCH] test-stat-time: port to mingw
* tests/test-stat-time.c (force_unlink): Return a value.
(test_ctime) [W32]: Fix compilation error.
(nap): Don't call usleep with too large an argument. Use
force_unlink.
* doc/pastposix-functions/usleep.texi (usleep): Document the
portability issue.
