The first two patches here I wrote some years ago but never posted - sorry.
The third and fourth allow rpcbind to work with an abstract AF_UNIX
address as preferentially used by recent kernels.

[PATCH 1/4] manpage: describe use of extra port for broadcast rpc
[PATCH 2/4] rpcbind: allow broadcast RPC to be disabled.
You realize that the broadcast code is configured out by default
./configure --help | grep rmt
--enable-rmtcalls Enables Remote Calls [default=no]
So do we want to introduce a flag and man page section
for something that is off by default?
I would say man page does not harm.
If I'm not mistaken, it's disabled in openSUSE and Debian/Ubuntu, maybe
disabling flag is really not needed.
As well as RHEL but not Fedora.

Kind regards,

[PATCH 3/4] Listen on an AF_UNIX abstract address if supported.
[PATCH 4/4] rpcinfo: try connecting using abstract address.
