The Java Language Specification, chapter 20 The Package java.lang,
Section 20.20.39 static sleep(), reads:

If the current thread is interrupted by another thread while it is waiting,
then the sleep is ended and an InterruptedException is thrown.

But Sun's implementation of this method, as well as java.lang.Thread.join()
and java.lang.Object.wait(), throws an InterruptedException
also when the thread was interrupted BEFORE the call to sleep().
This behaviour looks reasonable, so subcategory of this bug
is doc and not api.
