 In trunk/libs/thread/doc/thread_ref.qbk,

 effects of `this_thread::sleep_until` is described as:

   Suspends the current thread until the time period
   specified by `rel_time` has elapsed or the time point specified by
   `abs_time` has been reached.

 while effects of `this_thread::sleep_for` is described as:

   Suspends the current thread until the time point specified by
   `abs_time` has been reached.

 `rel_time` in `sleep_until` is extra, that is description for `sleep`, and
 description of `sleep_for` should be for `sleep_until`.
