The branch Andreas just merged leaves the "fast-bind" option on by default.
Cool, although I can't really see the use ;-)
The usecase is pretty simple: you have a loadbalancer and remove one backend Zope. The LB detects the removal and stops forwarding request. When the client comes back (means Zope opens the ports early) the LB will start forwarding to the client although it might take a while until the Zope instance is really up and ready to serve request. So by opening the ports late we are able to reduce the latency and avoid pending requests. -aj
