I should perhaps have made it clear that I'd like this as an option. It's<br>
good that rabbit uses 5672 by default and it's good that you can<br>
specifically request a port. I'd like a third option - to let the OS give<br>
you the port (and to then report it somewhere - actually I can already see<br>
it in the ps output).<br>

configuring Rabbit to use a port of 0? When using socket apis directly,
I seem to recall that is how you ask it to assign you a free port, and
doing this from a config level may just work...<br>
