Or we could do something like port = 0xC000 ^ (DEF_PGPORT& 0x7FFF); which is absolutely guaranteed not to conflict with DEF_PGPORT, at the cost of possibly shifting into the 32K-48K port number range if you had set DEF_PGPORT above 48K.I like XOR a lot better than OR.
For years we told people to make sure they picked 4 digit port numbers for the buildfarm, and while I removed that note recently it can be put back. So I don't think there's much danger - let's got with XOR.
