I've found the bug (it was a signed/unsigned comparison problem) and
will be committing a fix shortly.

thanks,

   This was reported back in June and seems to still be a problem in 2.0.16.
   If I have the following in my /etc/cyrus.conf file, I find that I can still
   connect to port 9143 as many times as I want and never did find a maximum
   number:

     imap cmd="imapd" listen="imap"
     imap_test cmd="imapd" listen=9143 maxchild=2

   I have tried various values for maxchild, and even placed it in quotes to
   see if that helped, but it just seems to be ignored, as far as I can tell.
   This would be something very useful to us if it works...
