  *   Find the UDP connection that uses this local port number.

+ *   ipaddr - The IP address to use in the lookup
+ *   portno - The port to use in the lookup
+ *   opt    - The option from another conn to match the conflict conn
+ *              SO_REUSEADDR: If both sockets have this, they never confilct.
+ *
  * Assumptions:
  *   This function must be called with the network locked.
