Crash upon load-timeout?

Alright, so on minetest 0.4 20120122-1, there's that timer when you are connecting to a server to load up everything. Well, for me when I connect to RAPHAEL's public viewing server; the textures take a long time to load up, so the 30 second time expires before it fully loads.
When the timer expires, minetest crashes.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Well on a side note I noticed when one player tries to connect sometimes it times out and crashes the SERVER. But I have noticed this issue occasionally when connecting to other peoples servers. Not sure the cause but sometimes the client crashes if it fails to get all the textures in the time alloted.

Happens to me occasionally. I just increase the timeout when that happens. Just go to game.cpp, find the line "const float timeout = 30.0;", and change 30.0 to whatever. Then recompile of course.
