I've quickly checked the source of wpkg.js 1.1.2 and 1.1.3-RC6. Both implement
the timeout functionality. The exec() function returns -1 if the timeout is
exceeded.

However the exec() function also suffers from a couple of bugs in WSH
implementation of Microsoft which will probably never be supported.
