Patch to selectively bind while still allowing broadcasts

Attached is a patch I have whipped up that appears to fix the C&C 3 networking
issue.  I only have one key for C&C3 (so I cannot actually play a game) but I
have tested chatting, having multiple interfaces (by adding a VPN connection),
and when I attempt to join a game it reports that my serial is in use (rather
than the usual connection timeout).

I am interested in comments on the attached patch and would like to request
that this bug be re-opened.  Please note that this patch adds a minor addition
to wineserver, so you will need to run ./tools/make_requests in order to test. 
Also note that a properly configured /etc/hosts is required for the game to use
the correct interface (otherwise it will use the magic IP, which cannot be
properly routed).
