I will fix the side-effecting asserts in t_path.c.
We unfortunately have hardcoded ports in a bunch of places in our test
suite, and just haven't done the work of fixing them. Fixing them
without a race condition would be somewhat difficult in the various
places where we stand up a KDC, but simply checking ahead of time for
an unused port might not be too hard. Another option we have
considered is wrapping all client/server tests with cwrap. This change
would come at some cost, in that we might not detect bugs which
manifest in a real network stack and not cwrap's implementation, but
would have the benefit that we wouldn't be listening on the potentially
open Internet during test runs.
