[patch] Accommodating Giganews users (20-50 connections)

I'd like to submit the following simple patch for inclusion in the
master repo, to accommodate users fortunate enough to have a Giganews
"Diamond" account, to allow them to use their full 50(!) connections.

Or perhaps a new switch could be added to the configure script which,
in turn, would then apply the appropriate patch (50 connections for
Diamond, 20 connections for Platinum/Silver/Bronze/Pearl)?

Anyway, just to present the general idea (this is a *very* simple
patch), and it works just fine and dandy.  No muss, no fuss!
(appy-polly-loggies for the line wrap)  :-) :
