+/* Maybe these functions really belong in the JobQueue?
+ * That would require support from the executor though.
+ * But fundamentally these are valid (in a threaded server)
+ * without fds, which is what the main loop provides.
+ * The executor already has a gcond_wait() that could be
+ * made a timed one.
+ *
+ * Note that a good priority queue is going to be needed in
+ * whatever class eventually implements these.
+ *
+ * Also, note that cancellation support is essential for these
+ * tasks.
+ *
+ * Yes, should probably happen in JobQueue + Executor:
+ *
+ *		executor should maintain all jobs in a priority queue
+ *		sorted by execution time. 
+ *
+ *		normal jobs get an execution time of "now", where timeout
+ *		jobs get an execution of sometime in the future.
+ *
+ *		this avoids starvation of timeouts since a timeout will
+ *		eventually move to the front of the queue (with a time
+ *		in the past possibly)
