Well, I'd say you need to find root cause of problem first. Do they
not send acct-start at all? Do they send it late?
It's possible that they don't support acct at all (wireless AP used
for 802.1x usually only use auth), so you'll have a hard time (if even
possible) to limit simultaneus connections.

It wouldn't be REAL accounting session. It'd be just some data you put
there based on the information available during auth. You won't have
enough information (like AcctSessionId) to create a real accounting
entry.

You can just use post-auth section, no need to patch the source code.
See the example for "Authentication Logging Queries".
