in the test program below the getsockname result on a TCP socket changes 
across a write which produces EPIPE... here's a fragment of the strace:

getsockname(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(37636), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [17863593746633850896]) = 0
...
write(3, "hi!\n", 4)                    = 4
write(3, "hi!\n", 4)                    = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe)
--- SIGPIPE (Broken pipe) @ 0 (0) ---
getsockname(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(59882), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}, [16927060683038654480]) = 0

why does the port# change?  this is on 2.6.19.1.

(fwiw this is one of two reasons i've found for libnss-ldap to leak 
sockets... causing nscd to crash.)

reproduce like:

make test-sockname-change
nc -l -p 9999 -c "exit 0" &
strace ./test-sockname-change 127.0.0.1 9999
