The EINVAL is indeed strange. According to the man page any negative timout
should result in an infinite wait.

This should not be necessary since PicoLip 21.4.15. It checks at compile time
whether it is a system with 32-bit int's, and then passes -1 for larger numbers:
#if (int)-1 == 0xFFFFFFFF
else if (timeout > 2147483647) // Fit into 32 bits (max 24 days)
timeout = -1;
#endif
I cannot test it here. Can you verify that it works?

Hmm, so the above is not enough. There must be some other problem, perhaps also
related to 32-bit integers.
