reintegrating some of the old return values text, adding a specific note based on how SleepEx() is documented to behave on Windows, and adding a Changelog section to document the pre-5.3.4 behaviour. git-svn-id: https://svn.php.net/repository/phpdoc/en/trunk@305811 c90b9560-bf6c-de11-be94-00142212c4b1

If the call was interrupted by a signal, <function>sleep</function> returns

a non-zero value. On Windows, this value will always be

<literal>192</literal> (the value of the
|

<constant>WAIT_IO_COMPLETION</constant> constant within the Windows API).

On other platforms, the return value will be the number of seconds left to
|

sleep.
