With `while (timeout++ < MAX_TIMEOUT)' timeout reaches MAX_TIMEOUT + 1 after the loop
This is probably unlikely to produce a problem.

That's right... but I'd rather change the loops to use "++timeout" and
leave the conditions as is (or maybe change it to "=="). I think it's
easier to read that way. Would that be OK with you?
