At a site I am working at, we need to be able to limit which users can
bind a socket to an address under IPv4.  Basically, bind() needs to check
the caller's groups and if you are one of several allowable groups, let it
pass, otherwise, error out.

Now, I glanced over the bind() code and it does not look that
difficult.  The problem is how do we keep up with -STABLE
afterwards?  Using CVSup, out changes will get clobbered every time.  Is
there a facility where you can keep up with the source but let local
modifications through?
