Bug Description

Looking at connection.cc line 1316:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~tangent-trunk/gearmand/1.2/view/head:/libgearman/connection.cc#L1316

The SO_RCVTIMEO/SO_SNDTIMEO options are commented out. The problem is that if a server happens to be blackholed or have a firewall that drops packets on port 4730 the socket hangs in the SYN_SENT state and libgearman ends up hanging waiting forever. Is there a specific reason why these were commented out? The commit cae018c3233ccd0bce7f104846cf7c5ce48fba11 that put it behind an if (0) doesn't have anything in the message that would explain why it was removed.
