What's protecting this feature from stomping on an existing connection

Nothing. Presumably if you specify it you know what you're doing, and
don't also create a connection to the same IP from the same port?

Hmm. Maybe we could allocate the socket anyway and make it allocate the
chosen port, failing if it isn't available? I guess I need to check the
APIs.

I guess this might work: http://p.sipsolutions.net/e5bc789d26b5e34a.txt

Yep, seems to work, I'll fold that in. (Tested by having a TCP
connection open and requesting the same port to be used)

Great! Patch looks good otherwise IMHO.

Cheers,

Pontus
