Well of course, since it waits only until system clock reaches a 10 second 
boundary - :00 :10 :20 :30 :40 or :50.

Maybe I should have wrote this: it waits till
UNIX_TIMESTAMP() modulo timestamp_align becomes 0.
where unix timestamp is numer of seconds since 1970.

Hope it finally makes sense now.
