Are you using authenticated binds? The extra connections should all be
stale sockets, which you can safely ignore. With authenticated binds
there's as extra connection that gets created just for the purpose of
binding -- and gets closed immediately thereafter. After a socket is
closed, netstat can still show it, for some time, under certain conditions.

It's alreday limited.
