   * to see if the connection timeout hook is already set, and if so
   * assigns the supplied hook value to the alternate connection

   * that hooks are NEVER unloaded or actively replaced. IOW, no one
   * will call this method with a 0 or some other pointer value to
   * replace an existing hook.
   *
   * If such functionality as unloading a hook pointer is required,
   * then this method must be extended to give some kind of identity
   * for the hook. Additional changes to the definition of the hook
