Try adding a "return 1;" to the bottom of the function "timeout_cb",
that made it work for me.

Without that return statement, it could be that the timer gets removed
after it has run once.

I have another problem: even with "safe moves" it can happen that I
get zapped when moving carelessly.  Is this expected?
