SYNOPSIS
use LWP::UserAgent::Patch::HTTPSHardTimeout -timeout => 300;
DESCRIPTION
This module contains a simple workaround for hanging issue with HTTPS
requests. It wraps send_request() with an alarm() timeout.
Can be used with WWW::Mechanize because it uses LWP::UserAgent.
FAQ
Why not subclass?
By patching, you do not need to replace all the client code which uses
LWP::UserAgent (or WWW::Mechanize, and so on).
