I considered mentioning that, but really, it helps only for
inetd-started servers (which may be a nontrivial number, but the basic
problem of having to configure a bajillion servers, each in its own
way, for what is really a system-wide configuration) still exists, just
reduced by the inetd-started servers.

This is the other reason I didn't mention it: you'd need a portmapper
that supports split registration.  Does ours?  I don't think the
standard protocol supports it (though I'm not certain; it's been too
long for for the wetware version and I don't find the softcopy at a
quick look.
