You might be able to bind one socket to x.x.1.1 and a second to 10.1.1.1
and x.x.1.1 so that connections to x.x.1.1 are only offered x.x.1.1 and
those to 10.1.1.1 are offered both addresses.

But you can't make the init-ack responses for connections to x.x.1.1
depend on whether the connect came from x.x.1.2 or y.y.1.2.

If the source and destination ports are fixed (as they usually are for M3UA)
you can sit trying to make an outward connection, relying on the init collision
code to work properly. Far from ideal!
