mash vic has an option to use the same port numbers, it is
enabled with the -rtptv flag to vic (it is so named since
rtptv also relies on matching port numbers).  the network
code in uclvic and mash have diverged a bit over the years
but the fix from mash could probably be ported back to
agvic with a little work...
