I'll work on this hopefully this week, and try to figure out why it's failing.
I suspect the issue is the original purpose of the workaround.  I suspect the
timeout is staying at the default.

In my limited testing, I didn't experience this -- but I'm not exactly sure what
the test configuration I should be using is to verify it.
