OK. What should happen, when I do _not_ configure any timeout? I
observed the following: Without an explicit timeout, the operation
(e.g.) POST expired after 10 minutes (on another QNX release, 6.3.0
instead of 6.3.2) when the physical network layer was removed. Is that a
default timeout (maybe in the socket domain), which depends on the
actual OS ? Or does libCurl is intended to wait for ever without
time-outing ?
