It appears this is a fix for multiple rds transports each trying to bind
to that port with INADDR_ANY, see commit f0af6566. I think the correct
fix is to use a single port but have transports listen on their specific
interfaces only.

I think this is too big a fix for 1.4.0 so I will simply disable TCP
transport there (leaving just IB transport, thus no problem) and move
the port back to 18634. For 1.4.1 we will have multiple transports again
and will need to fix this by not using INADDR_ANY, as described above.
