Aha! MacBook sleep function

I have just removed Crossover and all the games from my hard drive by following the instructions in the FAQ.

I have noticed that Crossover seems to block my MacBook's sleep function.
While Crossover was installed, I noticed that my MacBook will not fall asleep automatically after a given time of inactivity.
In order to make it sleep I had to close the laptop.
This was a little annoying- if you let it sit overnight, and it doesn't sleep, you can drain your batteries.

Now that Crossover is gone, it sleeps properly.

Is this on purpose?
Is that to stop the MacBook from sleeping in the middle of a game or something?
