/*
 * Test name: test01.c
 *
 * Objective: The purpose of this test is to make sure that the timeout mechanisms
 * work without errors.
 * 
 * Description: Executes a select as if it was a sleep and compares the time it
 * has been actually sleeping against the specified time in the select call.
 * Three cases are tested: first, a timeout specified in seconds, second, a timeout in 
 * microseconds, and third, a timeout with more precision than seconds.
 *
