A simple query to a server with fsockopen() won't timeout if the requested server is
down.

$serverquery = fsockopen($host, $port, &$errno, &$errstr, $timeout);

The operation times out first (120 seconds), even if $timeout is as low as 1 second; it
works fine if I remove unavailable servers from the query list.  Sometimes the server
crashes if I try the function again before the last operation times out.
