No, it just changed what gets parsed.  All the semantics are
essentially the same.  "duration" allows two notations for the same
thing: a number of seconds.  Formerly only a string was accepted.

Could you test this?

It only deals with the old suffixes.  And it only yields seconds.  So
it isn't really appropriate for retransmit-interval.

I've suggested that we change all times to a common unit but I haven't
done this.  So many events intervened that I've lost the thread.
