I had the same problem with uucico, it did not time out on failure to
get in to the remote end. It turns out the signal handler did not
set up interrupts to stop the read. The fix is in the file sys1.c,
you should find the line:

        s.sa_flags = 0;

and change it to:

    #ifdef SA_INTERRUPT
        s.sa_flags = SA_INTERRUPT;
    #else
        s.sa_flags = 0;
    #endif

BTW, thanks to the people who provide all the nifty tools for linux.
I think linux is better than the commercial stuff we have at work.
