I'm in the process of testing the attached patch, basically
just had to remove a portion of the match for the `Control
Outlet' option.

here is the clusternode elem I'm using, with the port
specified, and seems to work so far. as far as I know, this
must be specified in the cluster.conf manually.
<clusternode name="node1" votes="1">
<fence>
<method name="pdu">
<device name="pdu" port="1"/>
</method>
</fence>
</clusternode>
hope this helps.
