Yes we have 2+ of them and are trying to merge.  The other one sits here
and allows you even longer timeouts as well as time setting the timeout
independent of watchdogd in case you have two watchdogs and want to do tricks
like NMI/reset with the other one... but is lacking the man page yet.
I have added another one or two IC revisions I think that I had found
and tested privately.
