[Bug libc/1086] New: bindresvport needs to try harder

["roland at gnu dot org" <sourceware-bugzilla at sources dot redhat dot com>]

This trunk patch should go into the 2.3 branch:

2005-05-23  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@redhat.com>

	* sunrpc/bindrsvprt.c (LOWPORT): Apparently some mountd
	implementations are broken and don't accept ports < 512.

	* sunrpc/pm_getport.c (__get_socket): New function.
	(pmap_getport): Use it to open a non-reserved socket to the portmapper
	for TCP.
	* include/rpc/pmap_clnt.h (__get_socket): Declare.
	* sunrpc/pm_getmaps.c (pmap_getmaps): Use __get_socket to get an
	non-reserved socket for the portmapper.
	Based on a patch by Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com>.

	* sunrpc/bindrsvprt.c (bindresvport): Try harder to find a port.
	If we tried looking at the usual range without success extend the
	range to even lower ports.
