a198d898e8 TT RPC server: Don't search 538 million transients trying to allocate one.
Currently, mp_rpc_server.C tries 538 million ports to acquire an
available transient rpcbind port number.  This is bad when rpcbind is
running in secure mode (and you are not using tirpc) - Xsession will
'hang' at the dthello (blue) screen filling up your error logs with
RPC errors.

Now, just try +- 50 (for a total of 100 ports) before bailing.  The
dthello 'blue screen of death' is the most common problem in starting
CDE when rpcbind isn't set up properly.  This should at least not
cause the appearance of a 'hang'.

f84950100f Revert "Older Linux installations do not have svcfd_create()."
This reverts commit 44e384aedb.

This code is actually needed.  If svcfd_create() is not available, it
should be fixed only for those systems that it affects.

44e384aedb Older Linux installations do not have svcfd_create().
svcfd_create() is only called if OPT_UNIX_SOCKET_RPC is defined, so a #ifdef
round that code should be OK.
