Thanks for the test.  I committed it as sp52 and sp53.  The
server version indeed does not fire the timers.  If you want to
fire a PR, go ahead. 

I will have to think about a clean solution.  I don't think it is
technically hard to fix.  The timer server code is just completely
optional and I want to ensure it stays that way.
