Maybe it's just me, but initscripts seems like a horrible place to put this.

It's not just you! Not sure why it's being added here and I don't see any usage of it, so more information is required.

Why I've sent this is because I noticed there was no usleep binary in any of the packages in oe repositories, and I assumed that the end user might like to use it in their rootfs, so I migrated it from initscripts package of RHEL. Anyway, if all you guys think it's not necessary and not appropriate, I will not insist it, we could just ignore my proposal. :)

The tool itself sounds like it could be of use, but it should likely get its own recipe in meta-oe until/if something in oe-core actually needs it.
