  OTP-17536    Application(s): kernel
               Related Id(s): ERIERL-677, OTP-17216

               For gen_tcp:connect/3,4 it is possible to specify a
               specific source port, which should be enough to bind
               the socket to an address with that port before
               connecting.

               Unfortunately that feature was lost in OTP-17216 that
               made it mandatory to specify the source address to get
               an address binding, and ignored a specified source port
               if no source address was specified.

               That bug has now been corrected.
