+Subject: [PATCH] cups/http-addr.c: Set listen backlog size to INT_MAX (fixes
+ #308)
+
+Use a listen queue size of INT_MAX, which should default to the maximum
+supported queue size on the system.
+
+This avoids the problem of the listening backlog queue getting full when
+there are too many requests at the same time. The problem was observed
+with the previous backlog size (128) by customers when submitting large
+batches of print jobs, resulting in some jobs getting lost.
