Comment:
The patch that I submitted (works against both 1.0 and svn) adds a
hardwired 10-second timeout. If there is no response after the timeout,
the URL is considered broken. Although this is not ideal (it's
indeterminable rather than broken), a loud failure is much better than a
hang, and the user will understand immediately why Django thinks that the
URL is broken because they'll test it in their web browser and see that it
is unresponsive. This is much better than a hang or an Internal Server
Error.
