 Summary of the bug:

 Running on lubuntu 12.04 64bit.

 $ uname -a
 Linux somehost 3.2.0-49-generic #75-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 18 17:39:32 UTC
 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 I'm using the latest snapshot of ffmpeg-2.0 as of Jul 29, 2013.
 In ffserver.conf, Using any value > 5 for MaxClients causes ffserver to
 exit.


 How to reproduce:

 Get ffmpeg-2.0 snapshot

 $ ./configure --prefix=/somelocation --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libx264
 --enable-gpl
 $ make
 $ sudo make install


 Modify ffserver.conf...
