Hello Bert and thanks for this bug report. I could easily reproduce the issue you described, but I think it would best be fixed upstream rather than with an Ubuntu specific patch. I filed an upstream bug report [1] and linked it to this one.
Given that triggering this bug requires a very odd setting I'm marking this report with Importance: Low. Should there be an actual use case for such a high timeout please explain it in a comment and we'll re-evaluate the bug importance. Thanks!
