#
# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_SHORT_SLEEP
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   This macro searches for a "sleep" function that has 1/1000 of a second
#   accuracy. On some systems, this is known as nap() and on others usleep()
#   / 1000. There are probably other functions like this defined in other
#   system libraries, but we don't know how to search for them yet.
#   Contributions joyously accepted. :)
