Work around cygwin issue on condvar timeout
This workaround just works... Actually I don't quite understand why does it work in such way. With a simple test on Cygwin, it seems that the maximum value of tv_sec could be 12899331056917, while the maximum value of tv_nsec should be a value floating around 464600000. A larger timespec could block the syscall forever.
