Hmm. I just checked my home box (where I have the Debian package
installed), and it seems no longer to be the case. There's no entry
for deadlock_timeout, so the default (1000, IIRC) is what gets used,
I guess. I have a dim memory, however, of a comment in the old
config file to the effect that the (Debian) default setting of
deadlock_timeout was infinite, i.e. effectively no deadlock checking.
Hmm. I just checked an ancient box with 6.5 on it, and it's not
there. Maybe I'm on crack.
