Do you mean *not* use port 1023? Because if you reuse the same port,
you are supposed to wait 2*MSL to allow all old segements to clear,
but not if you use a different port pair.

BTW, maybe we can just have the remote host send a keepalive probe if
a second connection from the first host appears, to see if it gets a
RST.
