>Description:
<attempting to duplicate internal bug and loop in submitter>

<There> ... seems to be a bug in FreeBSD when specifying port number 0 in the 
socket address passed to the bind system call in order to let the kernel
select a free port number.

The semantics of SO_REUSEADDR is inconsistently implemented on FreeBSD.

FreeBSD 4 jail environment (on a FreeBSD 4 host):

dev-tegge:~$ ./bindbug 
serversock addr is 10.76.250.174:40328
dup bind: Address already in use
This error was expected, tried to bind to used addr/port
dup2 bind: Address already in use
This error was expected, tried to bind to used port without SO_REUSEPORT
autosock addr is 10.76.250.174:40328
bug triggered, port number conflict on sockets without SO_REUSEPORT
listen succeded after implicitly overlapping port bind

FreeBSD 6 host enironment:

tegge-store1:~:$ ./bindbug 
serversock addr is 127.0.0.1:59073
dup bind: Address already in use
This error was expected, tried to bind to used addr/port
BUG: binding duplicate socket to server port succeeded
dup2sock addr is 0.0.0.0:59073
overlapping explicit bind to same port number succeeded without SO_REUSEPORT
listen succeeded after explicitly overlapping port bind
autosock addr is 0.0.0.0:59073
bug triggered, port number conflict on sockets without SO_REUSEPORT
listen succeded after implicitly overlapping port bind

RHEL4 host environment:

[tegge@dell-bl1s3 ~]$ time ./bindbug 
serversock addr is 127.0.0.1:43270
dup bind: Address already in use
This error was expected, tried to bind to used addr/port
dup2 bind: Address already in use
This error was expected, tried to bind to used port without SO_REUSEPORT
bug not triggered after 16777216 iterations

>How-To-Repeat:
Use test code that is attached, compile and run on a fbsd box vs a linux box.
