  * FIX #2257: timer_settime() hangs during configure
  On a 2.6.24 Linux kernel, it appears that timer_settime() for
  CLOCK_REALTIME is sometimes hanging for a random amount of time when
  given a very small interval (we were using 1ns).  Using 1ms seems to
  be fine.  Also I installed a 1-second timeout to catch hangs in the
  future.

    M ./aclocal.m4 -2 +18
