  You must be running <= bpl8.  The internal max connection limit for 
FreeBSD is larger than the variable supplied by Circle.  I just manually 
typed in a conditionally-compiled statement substituting 1000 for the 
internal connection limit.  The CHANGES for bpl9 says Jeremy fixed this, 
and I'm sure it's more elegant than my little hack (I just wanted to get 
the damn thing compiled).  You might want to download and check out his 
code.
