wen b0dd8f611b Import PerlIO-via-Timeout-0.32 as devel/p5-PerlIO-via-Timeout.
This package implements a PerlIO layer, that adds read/write
timeout. This can be useful to avoid blocking while accessing
a handle (file, socket, ...), and fail after some time.

The timeout is implemented by using <select> on the handle
before reading/writing.
