There is no patch. The code has worked that way since at least Squid 3.1.

You can view the two functions here:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~squid/squid/trunk/view/head:/src/tools.cc#L923

* Squid_MaxFD initial value is set from ./configure.

* setMaxFD() gets run on startup to see if the system limit is smaller.

* confguration file gets p

* setSystemLimits() gets run shortly after setMaxFD then Squid logs:

The log message on startup is "With " << Squid_MaxFD << " file
descriptors available"

The only way to identify whether there is a different file FD limit and
socket FD limit is to wait until sockets fail. Squid watches for those
cases and "reserves" all the unused FD when failures happen. The log
message is "Reserved FD adjusted from 100 to 15391 due to failures"
