Could you share where you found this to be a problem?  It looks like a
bug in block because all inbound requests being prepared should have a
timeout set, so block would be the place to fix it.

I can't see how this can happen because we definitely add the timer
after the request is prepared in my reading of the block code, unless
I'm missing some path in block that violates this.
