Package: pound
Version: 2.4.3-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
The MAXBUF constant defined at compile time was reduced upstream from
2048 to 1024 which results in "line too long" errors for requests that
contain large cookies:
Nov 18 16:25:07 ABC pound: (4361c950) line too long: Cookie: __abc= [...snip...]
The problem has been previously described in more detail here [1].
Most RPM-based distros have amended their SPEC files to pass
--with-maxbuf=2048 to ./configure [2].
We should do likewise, although I suggest using --with-maxbuf=4096 as
this is now the upstream default. (Patch below.)

Just discover that this is fixed in testing.
Apologies for the noise.
My bad.
