In fact it was even worse than that: because of a second bug, the timer was then immediately reset to at least 1 s in the future. The proposed patch fixes both flaws.

Good to have a test for it -- maybe it should always be enabled, not just with enable-checking? People don't always reconfigure, rebuild and re-run the tests with enable-checking, nor do any of the build bots.
