Hi Eygene, I've not yet had a chance to put the patch together; it does involve removing that line, but it's somewhat more complicated because inp_lport is used to signal whether or not the inpcb is still in various linked list. My current thinking is that I'd actually like to make it an explicit flag that indicates being on the lists so that we can have the port set non-zero yet no longer be on the lists (which would cause the closed connection to occupy the tuple).
