In Xenix it essentially does a:
 
	timeout(wakeup, &u.u_procp->p_wchan,naptime);
	sleep(&u.u_procp->p_wchan, 0x28);

Which means that the process is actually suspended, to be rescheduled
after the indicated time. I don't know about SCO Unix, but if I would
bet on it, I would bet on that it is doing the same as on SCO xenix.
