`test_timeout()` checks that the timeout parameter works by waiting on stdout to be ready for reading with a timeout of 1 ms. One might guess that stdout would never be ready for reading, but it appears that on macOS, at least, pressing enter while running the tests will cause stdout to be ready for reading, which in turn will cause the test to fail. This switches `test_timeout()` to use `UnixStream::pair()` and just never write to the writer. This works even when keys are pressed while the tests are running.

FWIW, I just confirmed the same behavior on Linux. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
