Sorry about that I miss the previous sentence, the whole paragraph is:

Under no circumstance shall the operation fail with a timeout if a message
can be removed from
the message queue immediately. The validity of the abstime parameter need
not be checked if a
message can be removed from the message queue immediately.

It seems that the first sentence is more affirmative that the timeout
should not be checked when a message can be removed from message queue
immediately.
How do you think?

Thanks,
Kai
