When TIMEOUT is set and happend to occur there is nothing that shows that we
timed out. For example if you do a large/slow LDAP search using ldapsearch and
then stop the conversation between slapd and ldapsearch by "killall -STOP slapd"
then ldapsearch will terminate after TIMEOUT seconds and it will return the
number of records that it got so far and exit with return code 0 and not error
message. I'd expect that after TIMEOUT occuring that we get a warning and a
return code != 0
