Actually setting a timeout of 1 can be very usefull for AI testgames, 
so we don't want to limit it.

There is a patch that used to be applied to the civservers running at 
civserver.freeciv.org that allowed one to set a minimum timeout. I 
guess it has not been applied to the various versions running now.

Perhaps a patch that allows a lower limit for timeout will be applied 
to CVS once 1.12.0 is out.
