Would it possibly make sense to be able to run an rpcbind listening on a 
non-standard socket (as a test "helper", perhaps), and then make t_rpc.c 
attempt to contact that version/instance of rpcbind?

This seems like a useful test to have, and it would be nice to find a 
way to actually exercise it without impacting the test-bed host.
