We don't use quick-and-dirty patches. Have you tried my (proper) fix?

Does it work with postscreen? (turn off postscreen cache, turn on
"after 220 greeting" tests, then do the same tests as with smtpd).
Does it work with FIFOs for qmgr and pick
Since I needed to compile Postfix, I thought this could be the opportunity to
check the state of kqueue on Mac OS X at the same time: the most recent thread
I could find about those matters is the one that started with

Thanks for doing the experiments. On 64-bit systems the number
9223372036854775807 equals RLIM_INFINITY. This implies that
MacOS X does not enforce the open file limit.
This rlim_max value breaks a heuristic that Postfix uses to i

Hello,
(Not sure whether the postfix-devel list is the right place for such matters;

be more suitable)
Starting with Mac OS X 10.5, the man page for setrlimit(2) comes with following
compatibility section:
