Alright, so I just tried this.  Downgraded the test to 1.1 and ensured
that my kernel does not have the fix (sys_select.c:1.30 and sys_sig.c:1.32).

And the timeout of 2 seconds works just fine.

Just to make sure we are talking about the same: you were running the
test program with atf-run; correct?  If yes, what platform was this in?
 (I'm testing with amd64.)  Otherwise, this is expected behavior: tests
are not supposed to be executed without atf-run.
