>From the code, it looks like the build description is hard coded, you 
cannot specify your own in this case.

The description set is 

"Build timed out (after {0} minutes). Marking the build as {1}."

where {0} is the time period it aborted at
and {1} is either "aborted" or "failed" depending on checkbox "Fail the build"


If you want your own message you could use the descriptor setter 
plugin, which can write a different message for failed /aborted builds, 
(Advanced section)
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Description+Setter+Plugin 

and you can use the Regular expression to search for the above message in 
the log.
