Description

Add a new sysctl/tunable to mac_portacl:

security.mac.portacl.autoport_exempt

This sysctl exempts to bind port '0' as long as IP_PORTRANGELOW hasn't
been set on the socket. This is quite useful as it allows applications
to use automatic binding without adding overly broad rules for the
binding of port 0. This sysctl defaults to enabled.

This is a slight variation on the patch submitted by the contributor.
