Were you able to verify your hypothesis by adding a bit of
trapping code + assertion(s) in the original sources?  At the
point of double sleep one can check state to see if the
expected preconditions are true.  Alternatively one can check
when the expected conditions become true, set a variable and
test it where the double sleep print occurs.  Then one can sort
of walk back to the earliest point where things go wrong.
