Odd browsing behavior

If I have the following in cupsd.conf, I can see UDP browsing packets on
the wire:
Port 631
BrowseAddress @IF(eth0)
If I replace the Port directive with Listen, the server no longer sends
UDP browsing packets.
Listen 127.0.0.1:631
Listen 192.168.11.20:631
BrowseAddress @IF(eth0)
I work around the problem by changing the BrowseAddress directive. The
following sends UDP browsing packets:
Listen 127.0.0.1:631
Listen 192.168.11.20:631
BrowseAddress 192.168.11.255
I have a workaround but this behavior seems inconsistent. Did I miss
something in the docs? Can anyone explain why this is?
System is Linux (CentOS 4) with CUPS 1.1.22.
Thanks.
