The scattering isn't actually from Win32, which is where I thought it
came from.  It is from the PG_DELAY call that was added with:revision 1.137date: 2003/11/13 14:57:15;  author: wieck;
state:Exp;  lines: +8 -12nd try for the ARC strategy.I added a couple more Assertions while tracking down the
exactcauseof the former bug.All 93 regression tests pass now.Jan
 

What Win32 has done is to centralize all delay calls around that
function, now renamed PG_USLEEP/PG_MSLEEP.  I was going to add the
missing includes but if you want to centralize it, I think that makes
more sense.
