Hi,
I think this line will cause troubles when the timer wraps around its limit:
http://www.rts.uni-hannover.de/rtai/lxr/source/skins/rtai/task.c?v=cvs-4.x-fusion#L919
The posix skin handles absolute to relative timeout conversions
differently. It simply substracts (unsigned) the current time from
abstimeout.
When fixing this, note that the detection of recently passed timeouts
will no longer work. Or you have to define a period after the scheduled
timeout during that a call of rt_task_sleep_until shall return ETIMEDOUT.
Maybe other functions of the native suffer from the same issue, I did
not check yet.

PS: I hate thinking about timeouts - it always causes headaches for me...
