I saw this too when switching the default mount type from udp to tcp. We
have an application that mounts over 200 file systems in a for loop, and
it attempts to do it very fast. After the tcp switch there was about a 30%
failure rate. I ended up putting in a .1 sleep in the for loop and that
was enough for the kernel to release the bind port. That little bit of a
sleep did the trick, it's not pretty but it works.
