The bug was not due to the binary heap timers list, but to the fact that
the POSIX skin module (and other skins modules) did call
xnpod_stop_timer.

I removed all such calls of xnpod_stop_timer, since xnpod_shutdown calls
xnpod_stop_timer when needed (that is, only when shutting down the last
skin pod).
