This is deliberate.  The emulation path is only used when reading a file or
when writing to an already existing file.  (The concept is, "if you're
writing a new file, it may be wanted by something more than the emulation
environment.")  It's not just bind() that is "affected" by this; it's
open(..., O_CREAT) as well.
