The design issue is a struct and code in the score is dependent on 
something in a header in another file in another part of RTEMS, ie 
confdefs.h to actually work as expected. It is easy to see the 
relationship now but in time will that happen. We need to either bring 
the functionality closer together or check the values are valid or 
something else or all of the above. The optimisation is a good one and 
worth doing, we just need a way to handle the implementation issues.

The values are different and so different pieces of code have different 
timeouts. This would be very hard to see on a live system.
