I decided to implement BLOCK_X_CONNECTIONS, since it's simple and a
requirement before the dialup can go into production.  As currently
implemented, outgoing TCP (and I think UDP) connections on ports
between 6000 and 6150 are refused with an EADDRNOTAVAIL error.  (I
think the existing dialups use ECONNREFUSED, which I think is
deceptive.)  The affected files are netinet/in_pcb.c and netinet/in.h
(the only changes in netinet/in.h are wrapped in #ifdef _KERNEL).

The fix should be running on frobnitz now.
