- the issues with wakeup_one are due to address space clashes between
unrelated groups of threads.
- sleep() was removed in FreeBSD 2.2.
- date the page today, not 4 days ago.
- replace grammatically correct "woken" with "woken up" for
consistency with the function name.
want an equivalent of DELAY(9) that sleeps instead of spins. It accepts
a wmesg and a timeout and is not interrupted by signals. It uses a private
wait channel that should never be woken up by wakeup(9) or wakeup_one(9).

- Describe msleep() as the primary sleep function now rather than tsleep()
and describe tsleep() and msleep_spin() as variations.
- Try to make the description of msleep() a bit closer to English
(sentences with actual subjects, etc.)
- Document that a priority of 0 now prevents the thread's priority from
being altered.
- Add a history note for wakeup_one().
function in years.
- Change the 'ident' paramters to 'wchan' to match <sys/systm.h>.
- Use 'otherwise' in place of 'else' in one place so that this reads like
English rather than C.
- Document the new msleep_spin() function.
- Add history notes for msleep() and msleep_spin().
Nuke incorrect usage of .Ar; replace it with .Vt, .Va or .Fa appropriately.
The .Ar mdoc(7) specifier should only be used when displaying command line
arguments.

- Remove some bogus commas.
- Use the past tense when referring to the removal of the sleep() function
since it happened quite a while ago and since the previous sentence in the
paragraph already uses the past tense.

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...

- don't declare nonexistent function sleep().
- don't include <sys/errno.h> explicitly.
sleep() should be nuked some more, e.g., this man page should not be
named after a nonexistent function.
