reading the specs: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/timer_gettime.html
the DELAYTIMER_MAX is for realtime POSIX. but Linux is based on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Standard_Base, which is LSB. There is no direct mapping between LSB and POSIX, but perhaps this: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/time.7.html and http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/7908799/xsh/timer_gettime.html Look carefully between the two and you can perhaps find the balancing point u will need for implementing this feature. whether it is a kernel bug, or userspace bug is therefore highly controversial.
