Before it confuses anyone else, cgd points out i transposed a
MAX and a MIN:

>       MAX(somxaconn, MIN(sominconn, 128))
should be

>       MIN(somxaconn, MAX(sominconn, 128))

hope that didn't confuse anyone.

Uh, no, the point here is the sysadmin who _didn't_ set a limit via
sysctl. Or for someone who starts a daemon from single-user.  

We need a sane upper bound at all times, and INT_MAX isn't a sane as a
_default_ upper bound.

Sure, my bad. s/UINT_MAX/INT_MAX/g everywhere. I think I copied it
from someone else, though :) I even made the point about negatives
with Matt's code, too... "time for food".
