 I suppose yes this could be confusing.  But there's a reason for it -- it
 has to do with graceful restarts.  Suppose you were to change your
 MaxClients and then do a graceful restart.  If you lower it you could
 possibly have children (gracefully exiting) numbered higher than the
 current MaxClients... so we'd need to keep some sort of history for
 MaxClients in order to figure out how much of the table to show.
