 The listen manpage says:
 
Ifthe   backlog   argument   is   greater   than   the   value   in
/proc/sys/net/somaxconn, then it is silently truncated to  that  value;
the  default value in this file is 128.  In kernels before 2.4.25, this
limit was a hard coded value, SOMAXCONN, with the value 128.
 
 However, at least on 2.6.22, this file lives at /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn.

Josh,

Agreed.  Fixed for upstream man-pages-2.71.

Thanks!

Michael
