Tobias,

	I know that I can bind to any (and all) of the 1000+ aliases
without any visible problems. We are running thousands of simulated
HTTP clients and servers that way, each sending from or listening on
its own alias... That is exactly why I am asking for a definitive
answer based on how things are implemented in the kernel rather than
case studies.

Thanks,

Alex.
