bootpc_call() times out



Chris.

I see that on 2008/05/01 you committed changes (authored by folks at 
mind.be, it seems)
that let bootpc_call() terminate if no server can be contacted for some 
time.

This is different from pre 4.9 behavior which would keep on trying forever
until a server replied.

What was the rationale for this (AFAIK undocumented) change ?

IMO the old 'forever' loop made more sense.
