Good, so this whole babble about the potential of a timeout and whatever

we want to panic the hell out of this box and not do anything further.
So only the tolerant check would need adjusting.

I don't think you want to do this unconditionally, do you? Rather maybe
mce_timed_out dumps the order variable before the box panics :-)
