      and CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT_MS that, as their names should hint, do the
      timeouts with millisecond resolution instead. The only restriction to that
      is the alarm() (sometimes) used to abort name resolves as that uses full
      seconds. I fixed the FTP response timeout part of the patch.
    
      Internally we now count and keep the timeouts in milliseconds but it also
      means we multiply set timeouts with 1000. The effect of this is that no
      timeout can be set to more than 2^31 milliseconds (on 32 bit systems), which
      equals 24.86 days.  We probably couldn't before either since the code did
      *1000 on the timeout values on several places already.
