If not, is there some way I could achieve 
"receiveOnlyTimeout!(int)(dur, fun);" ?

Thanks,

I can't see the bug? The receiver accepts a bool as an int, same 
way a normal function does. The timeout is long enough that foo 
gets a chance to send.  If you want to stop the int receiver 
getting a bool, you could add another receiver with (bool) { // 
do nothing } or whatever before the (int) one, which will be a 
better match for the send.
