Follow-up Comment #5, patch #7855 (project lwip):
going back to cyclic timers would make it harder to run lwip in setups where
sleep is actually spent in hardware sleep with a configured interrupt.
how about having an additional sys_timeout_continue function, which would
schedule the next timeout relative to when the currently handled one should
have happened? this would make adding stable cyclic timers easy, and
alternative sys_timeout implementations could still decide not to implement it
(ie. alias it to sys_timeout) if they can't provide for drift-free time
keeping anyway.
