t-forward-control on slow machines

On how slow a machine do we want the regression tests, specifically
forward-control.sh, to still work?
On my Alpha PC164 (21164-500, ~1997), the forward-control test
produces erratic results. It eventually dawned on me that this is
just a timing problem. Bumping the timeouts from 5 to 10s makes
it run reliably. But then I'm sure Miod has even slower machines,
so I don't know what we want to accommodate.
