Port 80000 worked for almost 3 years and stopped working under the new
ThreadedAppServer.py just ten days ago. That belies "there's 65k ports,
no more".
I'm guessing that a library used by the new code is arbitrarily chopping
things off. It's not the end of the world, but it's unfortunate that
some libraries still "exist in a 16-bit world".
