I'm not sure that that's all the timer is doing.  It looked to me like
at some points there were 2 timers in the list, but I don't understand
much what's going on.

I used Emacs to examine the value of timer-list and timer-idle-list,
and saw that they were both empty.  Then I checked in gdb for the
value of Vtimer_list, and that wasn't empty.

How can that be?  Aren't they really the same thing?
