time.Sleep returns immediately for very long durations (integer overflow?)

If Duration is at least around MaxInt64 / 4, time.Sleep returns immediately. This doesn't happen at MaxInt64 / 8.

What did you expect to see?

The script should start sleeping.

What did you see instead?

time.Sleep returns immediately.

It works fine for me on go version go1.13.5 linux/amd64. That is, the program starts sleeping, and it doesn't seem to stop.

The playground uses fake times, so you shouldn't rely on it being able to sleep basically forever. Are you encountering this issue on a real platform?
