So the initial idea of the DefaultPeerPort is that otherwise (if you just set 
the peer to NULL) then if someone tries to send to an unconnected port you get 
a segfault, which is not helpful.  Seems like in that sense this is a step 
backwards.  Do you have other plans to avoid segfaulting on unconnected ports, 
that don't involve checking for a null peer on every packet send?
