Since there was a complaint about this change, we plan

you whether such a behaviour is what you, users, want best. Please, let
us know if you prefer this or a different solution.
I'd say "you should never start without all the ports that the config
specified" - so better fail than have a "success!" message with missing
TCP ports that you might only notice some time later.
On the SO_REUSE issue, I do not have strong opinions - if your machine
is comprimised by an attacker that can bind to tcp/53, you're hosed
anyway, so the security argument is not convincing me very much.
