Well, that's tied into the fact that pg_ctl doesn't disturb the server's
state if it gives up waiting. If it did, we would certainly use a larger
timeout or none at all. I don't feel a big need to change that default,
but if you have a surrounding script that is going to take adverse action
after a timeout then you need to use a larger value ...
