/* History:
 * --------
 *  2003-03-19  replaced all the mallocs/frees w/ pkg_malloc/pkg_free (andrei)
 *  2003-03-29  cleaning pkg_mallocs introduced (jiri)
 *  2005-07-27  complete re-design/re-implementation (andrei)
 *  2005-12-12  workaround & bug reporting for timer_del(self) called from
 *              a timer handle; added timer_allow_del()  (andrei)
 *  2007-05-26  workaround for darwin sigwait() bug, see slow_timer_main() or
 *              grep __OS_darwin for more info (andrei)
 *  2007-07-01  timer_del() returns <0 if the timer is not active or 
 *               cannot be deleted (andrei)

/* slow timer main function, never exists

 * "main" timer process, as accurate as possible and defer the execution of the  * timers marked as "slow" to the "slow" timer.
 * Implementation details:
 *  - it waits for a signal and then wakes up and processes
 *    all the lists in slow_timer_lists from [s_idx, t_idx). It will
 *   -it  increments *s_idx (at the end it will be == *t_idx)
 *   -all list operations are protected by the "slow" timer lock
