Everything else (including the last) looks fine, though I personally wouldn't bother closing file descriptors and freeing memory just before exit. RPC_ANYSOCK is an input value to various rpc library functions which means "I haven't opened a socket, you do it for me". It is not really a valid return value. Every time makesock is called, the return status is tested with if (makesock(...) < 0) To me, that says that the returned value should be e.g. -1, not RPC_ANYSOCK.
