[Live-devel] Groupsock handling in OnDemandServerMediaSubsession.cpp

Please send a complete set of proposed patches to the current source 
code, and I'll take a look at it.

(I'm a bit worried that changing the order that 
"setsockopt(SO_REUSE...)" and "bind()" is done might prevent pairs of 
applications like "testMP3Streamer" and "testMP3Receiver" from 
working together on the same (Unix) host - if started in either 
order.  So please test for that also.)
