Actually, the preset amount of time (if you want to call it that) for
"-1" is instantaneously, and on failure to get a lease it gives up
right away, rather than wasting the users' time doing multiple
retries.
I've attached an updated proposed patch, which also fixes #698582 (and
consequentially #700363).
Apologies for the delay on getting around to this.
Best wishes,
Mike
