[Users] ... Strange User-Bean-Counter: othersockbuf

[Robert Heinzmann]

Hello List, 

I have a strange beancouter value for a machine: 

/proc/user_beancounter
...
resource          held   maxheld   barrier   limit       failcnt
othersockbuf      16184  4364184   6000000   12000000       11
...

Altought the barrier was never reached, a failcnt is recorded. How can
this happen ? Is this a bug ?
