This broke when lib/host-resolve.* came in, I believe. resolve_hostname_to_sockaddr() will always set the local port to 0, ignoring what was specified. There's
no way to pass the port to those functions.

I believe the best course of action is to add a port parameter to the mentioned function, and pass it down to getaddrinfo() or whatever else gets called
underneath. I'll have a patch ready in a couple of hours.
