Comment(by simonmar):
The state in `libraries/base/cbits/DarwinUtils.c` would explain why
`threadDelay` would return immediately in GHCi, but I don't see anything
that would cause it to crash.
In any case, the fix is to move `initialize_timer` and `scaling_factor`
into the RTS (or maybe just use the existing RTS facilities).
