[The bug*daemon time-outs during shutdown also happen without fan-speed
issues happening first (or during shutdown).]

Experiments with booting and then shutting down somewhat
later show that the bug*daemon time-outs during shutdown
also happen without the fan's becoming loud first. They
seem independent at this point.

Oh: I did not mean to imply that only the -0 and the -1 of the
various bufspaceddaemon-* timeout. I just did not list them all.
