It comes from the code that parses transport specifications. But it's
assuming that it's parsing a destination, not a source. Even if you told
that code that you were doing the lookup in the context of a trap, it would
use 162.
So I think the solution is that either port is unbound or random high level

Can you try adding "-s 127.0.0.1:<some high level port>" to your trapsink
line instead? You can also try ":0".
I found a few bugs in the clientaddr changes before 5.8 went out, but I
don't use trapsink so didn't notice this one. There are a bunch of hacks
in the clientaddr support that would clearly have been better to push into
the transport parsing instead.
