Here's the specification's exact description:
timeout: Duration of time, in microseconds, that a consumer waits for

Let me make sure I got this right: timeout is in µs (10^-6 seconds), not
ms (10^-3 seconds). If so, I am off by 3 orders of magnitude in my
calculation. Right?
Correct, the value was intended to be in microseconds.
My perspective is that we are not implementing this API for a real
time operating system and therefore should take a fuzzy view of time.
Trust me, it is going to fuzzy what with the mechanism IB uses to encode
timeouts.
BTW, what do you think would be a good test case to make sure the new
code is working as intended?
dapltest could be updated to allow the timeout value to be specified
on the command line.
