Today we have had to reboot our firewall and due to a loose crossover

cable (sigh) between the firewall and the logger machine, ulogd was unable
to connect to the mysql server. That resulted effectively a hang in the
boot process: being unable to connect mysql_real_connect did not return
(or the socket timeout was so long I was unable to wait out), ulogd could
not reach the point to fork and init could not start the daemons,
processes following ulogd.

The attached simple patch adds the connect_timeout parameter to the MYSQL
section and calls mysql_option when connect_timeout is set.
