GNUNET_PROGRAM_run() reacts to the configuration, as does the rest of 
libgnunetutil and thus also libgnunetfs when it interacts with GNUnet 
services.

That said, I strongly suspect the *timeout* option the man page refers 
to may have been removed a long time ago. Or maybe there is one hiding 
in libgnunetfs that I'm not thinking of. ;-)
