The last two sentences of this paragraph are now inaccurate.  Please fix 
them up to match the current patch version.

Extra blank line.

The portstatus value shouldn't be printed if ret < 0, because it won't 
be initialized.  If you want, initialize portstatus to 0 in the 
declaration.

Also, there should be a comment here explaining why this code is needed.  
It should say pretty the same thing as the patch description, but more 
briefly (two sentences should be sufficient).
