I ran a similar test.  Do note though, the first parameter to the function 
is supposed to be a resource ID.  None the less, it returns false ("wasn't 
set" in my test) so this function isn't meant for manipulating STDIN.

        $In = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
        if (stream_set_timeout($In, 1) ) {
            echo "was set\n";
        } else {
            echo "wasn't set\n";
        }

I just searched php.general about this and couldn't find any answers there 
either.  http://groups.google.com/groups?group=php.general

Enjoy,
