I understand that :-) - the point isn't the timeout initialization, but
Arne had reservations about do_init_2() being "too big" - which is why
the original patch from James wasn't merged months ago.

(Unfortunately we only discussed this on IRC, not formally on the list,
so it never made a "true NAK")

But maybe the point is somewhat moot - now, only part of the code
runs privileged, while before that, people needing privileged ports
had to run *everything* privileged...
