When the IETF decides to define some use for port number 0, in either UDP or TCP, beyond what is defined now, and that is for some use which a normal (as opposed to special system dependent) application might want to use, we can apply for special dispensation to the purple unicorn emperor of the soviet states of america to permit us to add a new option which will allow applications to actually bind to port 0. In the meantime, what this is adding is what systems actually implement, which is what the standard is supposed to say.
