[gaim-migrate @ 17444] Patch from launchpad bug #64445, from Paul Schulz Fix some typos committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

14691:dbcdef1ab5af

Timeouts allow a perl subroutine to be exectued after a specified time.  They only occur once, so as stated earlier the timeout must be reregistered after every time it is called.

@code
sub timeout_cb {
	my $plugin = shift;
	print "Timeout occured.";
	
	# Reschedule timeout 
        Gaim::timeout_add($plugin, 10, \&timeout_cb, $plugin); 
}
