Anyways, I don't think using SO_*TIMEO for Ruby is worth it.

I think Ruby can gain an internal timeout mechanism which can
hook into all rb_*wait* APIs and raise Timeout::TimeoutError as
appropriate.

I will consider that for my work-in-progress on auto-fibers;
all APIs will have a timeout arg: [ruby-core:81244]
