[Zope] xml-rpc timeout

[Andy McKay]

The error is that it timed out trying to do the xmlrpc call to the other
box. It's a valid error, which doesnt help you solve the problem. Looking in
the code you might find a place to increase the time out value, especially
if something that is taking a long amount of time is occuring.
