The times for close_delay and closing_wait are in hundredths of a
second, not milliseconds. Fix the documentation instead of trying
to use millisecond values (which would have to be rounded).

If you'd prefer, I can fold the second part of this into my previous
patch which shouldn't have documented it as milliseconds in the first
place (but I copied it from the other entry).

Could you send these two hunks as a separate patch? It's correct 
regardless of your other patch.

And I would use "centiseconds" instead, which is used (IMO) in these cases.
