Socket zero is a different problem, one that appears to mask the other.
Specifically, 0 is legal as a socket descriptor, but doesn't appear to be

I have already run configure so I didn't do say again (thinking that
configure will recreate config.h from config.h.in).

The result is the same when only the port is specified with -w.
