Actually, I don't think that's what the code does.

Looking at subversion/libsvn_client/update.c:svn_client_update3(), it
passes '&sleep' to svn_client__update_internal(). This happens inside
the path loop.

When svn_client__update_internal() gets a non-NULL boolean pointer, it
doesn't sleep, it just sets the boolean, to indicate to the caller
that a sleep is required. The 'sleep_here' local var remains FALSE.
(svn_client__update_internal() will sleep unconditionally in the event
of an error, but presumably that's not what's happening here.)

Note also that the call to svn_client__handle_externals() is passed
the same boolean pointer, and does the same thing with it; no actual
sleeping happens in externals.c.
