I do agree that it works with dash, but then one can (should) argue
that the check should not emit any warning if there is nothing wrong.

So, either :

1. update that check, since it isn't a real "bashism" in the sense of
"not dash".
2. update the script to sleep a whole second
3. update the script to use /bin/sleep, of the "coreutils" package.

Option 1. is not very realistic IMHO, so either the 3. which would
conserve the feature asis, or 2. which would not introduce an extra
dependency.

That said, a dependency to "coreutils" might not be very demanding.

In any case, I also really think it's a "normal" bug, not a "serious"
one : due to the fact that it does works with dash.
