That test isn't quite proper I think... the random 127/8 address:port may
well be taken. Also, it might not even be on the same interface as
specified by this option. If you want to do a run-time test, better to
bind the address specified by the user and test that, I think.
(However, I don't think the test is necessary. bind() will fail if it's
not going to work.)
