<para>The option <option>--timeout</option> (corresponding to the
configuration setting <literal>build-timeout</literal>) allows you
to set an absolute timeout on builds — if a build runs for more than
the given number of seconds, it is terminated. This is useful for
recovering automatically from builds that are stuck in an infinite
loop but keep producing output, and for which
<literal>--max-silent-time</literal> is ineffective.</para>
