Yes I did that patch some time ago for some server who needed it. If there is interest 
I can submit it  for 2.6. But I'm not sure it fits the "important bug fixes only" rule.

Another alternative would be to make it a fraction of the listen() argument per socket
(e.g. min(tcp_max_syn_backlog,min(128,10%*listenarg))) to allow the application 
to easily change it.
