Comment (by john_perry):

 Okay, it looks as if ''' ''I'' ''' had forgotten to test `mip.pyx` this
 time! Basically, I had added to `glpk_backend`'s `solve()` method a test
 for correctness when the timer runs out. I did this because otherwise
 `mip.pyx` thought there was a solution. (I don't remember exactly why.)

 For now, I've changed the expected string in the doctest to reflect what
 the backend currently has, but another (better?) mofidication would be to
 change the backend to test for the precise signal (`GLP_ETMLIM`) and raise
 an exception telling the user that time ran out, so the solution will be
 invalid.

 Which do youprefer?
