I like 'registering both always and disabling one' approach for

cases (first legacy port stolen).
Jeff, what do you think?
The reason for hard_port_no's existence is the fact that is can
sometimes differ from port_no, and we need to know the "real" port
number, as opposed to the port number based on counting probed ports.
If you eliminate the need for hard_port_no, feel free to erase it.
