I found the problem.  It is a misunderstanding on the timeout.  It is "absolute
time" not "relative time".  This means you have to do a clock_gettime() to
obtain the current time and add something to it to more time into the future. 
I just made this change and committed it.  

Just watch out on other APIs which use abstime to do the same thing.  POSIX is
tricky on this. :D
