One thing I forgot to mention...

I am right now contemplating changing the socket interface to pass
user credentials down to pru_bind().  This could be used, for example,
to provide a more sophisticated access-control model for local port
numbers (like blocking user attempts to bind to port 2049).  Hopefully
we can get rid of SS_PRIV completely...
