I am attaching a much simpler tar ball that demonstrates the difference between xenomai-2.4.6.1 and xenomai-2.5.1 rt_cond_wait() function.  The difference is that in the new version of xenomai-2.5.1 the rt_cond_wait() function does wait for the condition for the specified timeout interval but when it timesout it returns 0 and I have not been able to get it to return -ETIMEDOUT.  The CanFestival timers_xeno task depends on the value of -ETIMEDOUT being returned when a timeout occurs.

But did you have the watchdog enabled with 2.4.6.1 ?
