ExitPolicy: ports 1024-65535 needed?

After recently setting up a Tor router, I was wondering about the necessity
of allowing all high range ports.  Is this necessary for return packets to
be allowed back through the network?  Example:

  client:1024 -> server:80
  server:80   -> client:1024

If all I have is:
  
  ExitPolicy accept *:80, reject *:*

Will this block the first packet, the second packet, both, or neither?
