/* NAME
/*	timed_ipc 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	enforce IPC timeout on stream
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <time_ipc.h>
/*
/*	void	timed_ipc_setup(stream)
/*	VSTREAM	*stream;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	timed_ipc() enforces on the specified stream the timeout as
/*	specified via the \fIipc_timeout\fR configuration parameter:
/*	a read or write operation fails if it does not succeed within
/*	\fIipc_timeout\fR seconds. This deadline exists as a safety
/*	measure for communication between mail subsystem programs,
/*	and should never be exceeded.
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Panic: sanity check failed. Fatal error: deadline exceeded.
/* LICENSE
/* .ad

/*	The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
