More than one remote port fwd request for the same local port

Hi,

how deals dropbear with different clients which are requesting each a remote port forwarding to the same local port (on the server side), e.g.

system-1> dbclient -l user1 -N -R 7777:client-ip-1:80 server-ip
...
system-2> dbclient -l user2 -N -R 7777:client-ip-2:80 server-ip

Doing a quick test it looks like dropbear accepts the client requests but the port forwarding does not work (actually it cannot because there is more than one 'target').

Cheers
Michael
