POSIX.1-200x draft 5 has this to say:
Implementations shall support values of backlog up to
SOMAXCONN, defined in <sys/socket.h>
If listen( ) is called with a backlog argument value that is
less than 0, the function behaves as if it had been called
with a backlog argument value of 0. A backlog argument of 0
may allow the socket to accept connections, in which case the
length of the listen queue may be set to an
implementation-defined minimum value.
So, SOMAXCONN is supposed to be a minimum maximum.
