Actually, pipe_command() already has a time limit argument, so the
pipe_command data depenency on the non-library var_command_maxtime
variable was as unnecessary, just like the scache_clnt data depenency
on the non-library var_scache_service variable.
Both dependencies on non-library data are removed in snapshot 20101204.
