Please give an explanation why you are adding this sleep.

To give a chance to the child process to complete before calling waitpid.

One second in an unit test is a lot.

When I was asking for explanation, I mean usual explanations in commit message:
	- what is the issue
	- what is the root cause
	- what is the reasoning behind the fix

I'd be curious to see which specific problem you are addressing as well. 
FreeBSD hanging on abort is a known issue, and a workaround is already 
available:

http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/40256/

FreeBSD doesn't really "hang" here, it just spends a looooooooooooooong 
time doing the core dump because FreeBSD, unlike Linux, doesn't ignore 
hugepage and zero-page anonymous memory for core dumps, resulting in it 
trying to dump the entire 128 gigabytes of VA space that we preallocate.

Setting resource limits will address the immediate issue, a more 
complete fix (some memory subsystem refactor) will be coming for 18.08.

Anatoly

So it seems my "fix" only hides the issue and doesn't actually fix 
anything - so I will remove it from patchwork

Should not be necessary; waitpid does that.
