>Description:
	portal will only work with symbolic port numbers or network byte order
	port numbers.  It would be more natural if it used host byte order when
	given numeric port numbers.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Try to open "/p/tcp/localhost/25".  Watch it fail.  If the port number
	is given symbolically or in network byte order, it will work.
