If I understand this correctly, this means we need some kernel patches. Either (a) we add the source address in sockaddr_sco so we can drop the bind() call (because sco_sock_connect would already receive both addresses), or (b) we modify sco_sock_bind such that it doesn't complain with EADDRINUSE. I don't have much experience with sockets but the second approach seems a workaround to me. On the other hand, the first approach would need special care not to break existing userland code. However this doesn't seem very difficult. Any other proposals?
