The definition of `sit-for' has been changed by Glenn as

        * subr.el (sit-for): Fix obsolete form for nil second argument.

on 2008-02-21.  I'm not sure whether that has fixed the problem you see,
so could you please verify by having a look at the current CVS version?

Thank you very much, martin.
