The way to #define a macro as two or more statements,
without having this problem is:

#define macro(x)	do { stmt1(x); stmt2(x); ... } while (0);

So, the definition of usleep() looks like:

/*=========================================================================*/

#ifdef  ultrix

#ifndef _TYPES_
#include    <sys/types.h>
#endif  /* _TYPES_ */
#ifndef __XTIME__
#include    <sys/time.h>
#endif  /* __XTIME__ */

#define usleep(usec)
        do                                                              \
        {                                                                \
            struct timeval  usl_delay;                                    \
            usl_delay.tv_sec  = (int) (usec) / 1000000;                    \
            usl_delay.tv_usec = (int) (usec) % 1000000;                     \
            (void) select(0,(fd_set *)0,(fd_set *)0,(fd_set *)0, &usl_delay);\
        } while (0);

#endif  /* ultrix */

/*=========================================================================*/
