    DESCRIPTION
            "The minimum value permitted by a TCP implementation for the
            retransmission timeout, measured in milliseconds.  More
            refined semantics for objects of this type depend upon the
            algorithm used to determine the retransmission timeout.  In
            particular, when the timeout algorithm is rsre(3), an object
            of this type has the semantics of the LBOUND quantity
            described in RFC 793."
