OK. I missed one while cleaning up.

As far as I can see, the alternatives are that either it does not work
without patches for scenarios where the ipaq is rebooted while connected
(like we do), since these need a large number of retries (up to 3500 in
our tests today, about 6 minutes), or the default value is much higher
than the current 100 (which gives a 10 seconds timeout).

I'm not sure what the best solution is.
