forwarding problems

Use case:
- embedded system running dbclient with server connection that includes a  
port forwarding.
- system is powered off, and powered on again
- upon next boot, the following message is given:
dbclient: Remote TCP forward request failed (port 10526 -> 127.0.0.1:22)

I'd believe that doing a SO_REUSEADDR via setsockopt() would resolve this  
issue.
However, I'm not sure and where to implement this (in cli_tcpfwd.c?)

Thanks for any suggestions.

Rob
