kern.maxpipekva exceeded, please see tuning(7).

[Josef Karthauser]

I've got a 5.2.x machine which has hung and is giving the message
'kern.maxpipekva exceeded, please see tuning(7)' on the console
whenever anyone tries to open a tcp connect to it.  Does anyone
know what this tweakable is about and what might cause it to be
"exceeded"?  The machine has been running fine for 6 months.
