The checks for a connection being "too long idle" or "too old" where rounding down the elapsed time to seconds before comparing to the configured max values. This caused connections to be reused for up to 999ms longer than intended. Change the compares to scale the configured seconds up to ms, so connection will properly be "too old" 1 ms after the coonfigured values. Fixes sporadic failures of test1542 on platforms where "sleep(2)" returnes before 2 full seconds on the internal clock where passed. Reporter: Christian Weisgerber via curl-library mailing list
