from the web page:
timeout_guts inserts the new callout structure at the head of the list =>
-callouts not executed in casual order...
-callouts inserted while list is being traversed don't get executed immediately
also, name consistency, etc...
Weren't there some changes to timer code made recently? I thought it
was something similar. (The patches there are on fairly old file versions)
