	...

There's no documentation -- or even mention -- of FCGID_MAX_APPLICATION @,

	http://httpd.apache.org/mod_fcgid/mod/mod_fcgid.html

In source, @ ./modules/fcgid/fcgid_proctbl.h,

	...
	/* Increase it if necessary */
	#define FCGID_MAX_APPLICATION (1024)
	...

Not quite 'explanatory' :-/ So, randomly changing

	-	#define FCGID_MAX_APPLICATION (1024)
	+	#define FCGID_MAX_APPLICATION (4096)

rebuilding, reinstalling, restarting ... makes no difference.  Same error.

What's *is* FCGID_MAX_APPLICATION?
What's the error signifying?
What are the guidelined for setting this paramaeter?
Where can it be set?  Only in src @ build time?

Thanks.
