/* NAME
/*	rand_sleep 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	sleep for randomized interval
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <iostuff.h>
/*
/*	void	rand_sleep(delay, variation)
/*	unsigned delay;
/*	unsigned variation;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	rand_sleep() blocks the current process for an amount of time
/*	pseudo-randomly chosen from the interval (delay +- variation/2).
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP delay
/*	Time to sleep in microseconds.
/* .IP variation
/*	Variation in microseconds; must not be larger than delay.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Panic: interface violation. All system call errors are fatal.
/* LICENSE
/* .ad
/* .fi
