Hi,
The attached file is my patchfile to 3.1.2. Among the several additional
features is the "with-loadlimit" feature, which is what you want/need.
The folks at Qualcomm seem comatose about picking up and adding the
features included in this patch. I sent it in long ago

# To apply this patch:
# STEP 1: Chdir to the source directory.
# STEP 2: Run the 'applypatch' program with this patch file as input.
#
# If you do not have 'applypatch', it is part of the 'makepatch' package
# that you can fetch from the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network:
# http://www.perl.com/CPAN/authors/Johan_Vromans/makepatch-x.y.tar.gz
# In the above URL, 'x' should be 2 or higher.
#
# To apply this patch without the use of 'applypatch':
# STEP 1: Chdir to the source directory.
# If you have a decent Bourne-type shell:
# STEP 2: Run the shell with this file as input.
# If you don't have such a shell, you may need to manually create
# the files as shown below.
# STEP 3: Run the 'patch' program with this file as input.
#
# These are the commands needed to create/delete files/directories:
#
touch 'popper/dce_pwent.c'
chmod 0600 'popper/dce_pwent.c'
touch 'popper/pop_authdce.c'
chmod 0600 'popper/pop_authdce.c'
#
# This command terminates the shell and need not be executed manually.
exit
