We are tracking this upstream. It is unclear whether bindresvport will
remain as a public API in glibc. So far, it has not been subject to the
Sun RPC transition in glibc, although libtirpc implements the symbol as
well. It may therefore be possible to turn the glibc symbol in to a
compat symbol, effectively removing it from the glibc API. In this case,
it is unlikely that upstream will implement a denylist, similar to what
is available in libtirpc today.

Applications built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 can already use the
libtirpc denylist functionality for bindresvport by linking against
libtirpc.
