Even with the most recent relaxing of the sleep test requirements, I can
still (depending on overall system load) have 'sleep' take too long, on
QEMU.  I think it might have been half a second slow, but I don't have
the log handy anymore.  Both locally and in travis we -k not sleep all
of the qemu instances.
