FWIW I've used a 100 ms bell sound via a libcanberra call for many years, and have had to make the same hack to misc1.c.
The reason given in the comments for the one per second limit is that some systems or terminals stall while playing a beep, so repeating some action or motion by holding a key down can cause a hang while a key buffer-full of beeps play. I wonder if any such systems are still used or supported. With libcanberra repeating a sound just restarts it and sounds play asynchronously anyway.
