+I don't know about xp, but older versions of windows (tested on w2k
+definitely) will let you bind a new socket over an existing one.  See
+bug 53992 for why we deliberately don't allow this any more.
+
+If you can point to some documentation about the specific behaviour in
+these situations, please add a link to this bug.
