And overnight testing with a 50-microsecond WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW was
uneventful. However, I managed to miss printing when a retry was
necessary, so all that says is that no more than three retries were
ever required. So I added test code to print a message whenever two
or more retries are required and restarted the tests. Shorter run,
but more systems, so hopefully similar coverage.

If that works OK, I will resend the series this evening, Pacific Time.

Thanx, Paul
