As the spec says, and the implementation ensures, sync timeout is only supported for workers - and a few tests cover this. Last time I checked, it seemed it was working at least. Do you see any of the http/tests/xmlhttprequest/timeout/* tests failing?

For the workers case, is it hitting the same code path in FrameLoader::loadResourceSynchronously() which would reset the timeout? What do you mean by "resetting the timeout", if this code path actually just sets a new setTimeoutInterval on a request that was already sent out, I doubt it would have any effect. The backends don't handle this case.
