Hi, Version: timeout (GNU coreutils) 9.6, Archlinux, x86-64.
While playing with different duration parameters to `timeout`, I noticed that extremely short durations, like `1e-3000`, are rounded down to `0`. The problem is that `0` has a special meaning (disabling the timeout), so I don't think this is desired. All of these commands exit immediately: ``` timeout 0.0001 cat timeout 1e-100 cat timeout 1e-300 cat timeout 1e-323 cat ``` But these never exits: ``` timeout 1e-324 cat timeout 1e-3000 cat ``` As if we had typed: ``` timeout 0 cat ``` I think there is some logic in `printf` to handle float parsing underflow, so maybe this can be reused in `timeout` as well. Thanks,
