I think it is up to us to decide what a correct behaviour would be in this
case since we haven't yet released a version with curl_multi_wait... Whatever
we decide we should make sure it gets added to the man page.
Somehow I think it makes sense that it waits until there's action, and if
there's nothing to wait for waits the entire timeout period.
Or am I wrong?
