Translate hangs indefinitely after specific input #92

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Translate a specific input A.
My A here is the URL
http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/language/translate
with the parameter 
v=1.0&langpair=de%7Cen&q=159%0A&langpair=de%7Cen&q=Vaterrolle%0A&langpair=de%7Ce
n
&q=Informationen+%C3%BCber+die+Rolle+des+Vaters+bei+der+Kindererziehung%0A&langp
air

r%C3%A4nderung+dieser+Rolle+%C3%BCber+die+Zeit%0A++++++++untersuchen.%0A

2. Translation of A is done.
3. Now translate B, where B is one of all inputs including A.
4. Translate hangs for several minutes.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: translation of B. 
See: nothing. Hangs

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
google-api-translate-java-0.92
Mac OS X 10.6.3, Java 1.6
Eclipse Galileo

Please provide any additional information below.
After investigating the line at which the program hangs is

final String result = inputStreamToString(uc.getInputStream());

in line 79 of GoogleAPI.java.
And specifically the uc.getInputStream() part. 
It's apparently a known issue from Sun.

My idea / suggestion is to set a timeout to connection with 
setReadTimeout() which throws an SocketTimeoutException. 
And once this exception is caught pass it to the caller 
(Translate's retrieveJSON()) and let caller retry the translation.
