[rrd-developers] [PATCH] fixed bug with flush_old_values(-1) and -z <jitter>

[kevin brintnall]

When -z <jitter> is specified, some updates may be timestamped up to
<jitter> seconcds in the future.  Therefore, a timeout of now+1 may not be
sufficient.  Set abs_timeout past the point where any updates are
currently specified.
