Timeout patch uploaded

Hi,

	just uploaded:

for_Apache_1.1b0/84.timeout.patch

	From: nschrenk@neog.com (Nathan Schrenk)
	Subject: Timeout code fix
	Affects: http_protocol.c, http_main.c
	ChangeLog: Reset timeout timer after each successful fwrite()
		to the network.  This patch makes timeout_name a
		global, and modifies the send_fd() procedure to
		check for an existing timeout by looking at
		timeout_name.  If a timeout is set, send_fd() resets
		the alarm timer to the default timeout every time
		fwrite() successfully sends data.

This is by far the most common bug reported against apache at the
moment.  It's pretty useless as a webserver unless the problem is
fixed.

Cheers,
Ay.
