[trying on freebsd-net since no response on stable]

I noticed that apache on RELENG_8 and RELENG_7 shows up with output I 
cant seem to understand from sockstat -l and netstat -naW

On RELENG_7, sockstat -l makes sense to me
....
www      httpd      83005 4  tcp4   *:443                 *:*
www      httpd      82217 3  tcp4   *:80                  *:*
www      httpd      82217 4  tcp4   *:443                 *:*
www      httpd      38942 3  tcp4   *:80                  *:*
www      httpd      38942 4  tcp4   *:443                 *:*
root     httpd      1169  3  tcp4   *:80                  *:*
root     httpd      1169  4  tcp4   *:443                 *:*


various processes listening on all bound IP addresses on ports 80 and 443.

On  RELENG_8 however, it shows up with an extra entry (at the end)

www      httpd      29005 4  tcp4   *:*                   *:*
www      httpd      29004 3  tcp4 6 *:80                  *:*
www      httpd      29004 4  tcp4   *:*                   *:*
www      httpd      29003 3  tcp4 6 *:80                  *:*
www      httpd      29003 4  tcp4   *:*                   *:*
www      httpd      66731 3  tcp4 6 *:80                  *:*
www      httpd      66731 4  tcp4   *:*                   *:*
root     httpd      72197 3  tcp4 6 *:80                  *:*
root     httpd      72197 4  tcp4   *:*                   *:*


*:80 makes sense to me... process is listening on all IPs for port 
80.  What does *:* mean then ?

Netstat gives a slightly different version of it

Active Internet connections (including servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q  Local Address          Foreign Address       (state)
tcp4       0      0 *.1984                 *.*                    LISTEN
tcp4       0      0 *.*                    *.*                    CLOSED
tcp46      0      0 *.80                   *.*                    LISTEN

state closed ?
