Thanks for figuring out this. Mainline had this 5s timeout so I kept it,
but you don't experience this bug, right? Since master doesn't setup a
timer to get curl notified about the timing, the option is just not
effective.

Long latency network is common in practice, as well as low bandwidth,
the meaning of the timeout is to complete the request, in extreme cases
if it is a 1Kbps link, downloading 256k takes minutes. Anyway, I think
making it larger won't hurt.
