set_time_limit() doesn't work correctly in limiting the time a shell command (executed either
though exec() or ``). The configuration limit, or a set limit doesn't apply to a shell command
taking too long.
[Editor's Note: Limiting the length of execution of a system command started by PHP may well be
beyond the scope of what PHP is responsible for. I will bring this topic up on the developer's
list and see what the general consensus is.
