2 * TCP_MSL is the default timeout I think. However, I think we try and recycle PCBs from TIME_WAIT when we try to alloc and there isn't one available. I wonder if the message you're seeing is just the "I failed to find a free one" and then the following line of code gets one from TIME_WAIT and everything is OK. Do you actually see anything go wrong, or is it just the message that you don't like?
