Here's the code that binds to the interfaces for writing...

#if defined(SO_BINDTODEVICE)
         {
                 /*
                  *  We want to send out this particular interface
                  *
                  * This is so we can have redundant NICs, and heartbeat on both
                  */
                 struct ifreq i;
                 strcpy(i.ifr_name,  mp->name);

                 if (setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE
                 ,       &i, sizeof(i)) == -1) {
                         LOG(PIL_CRIT
                         ,       "Error setting socket option SO_BINDTODEVICE"
                         ": %s"
                         ,       strerror(errno));
                         close(sockfd);
                         return(-1);
                 }

                 if (DEBUGPKT) {
                         ha_log (LOG_DEBUG
                         , "bcast_make_send_sock: Modified %d"
                         " Added option SO_BINDTODEVICE."
                         ,       sockfd);
                 }

         }
#endif

Here's the code for the "reading" side.

#if defined(SO_BINDTODEVICE)
         {
                 /*
                  *  We want to receive packets only from this interface...
                  */
                 struct ifreq i;
                 strcpy(i.ifr_name,  ei->interface);

                 if (setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE
                 ,       &i, sizeof(i)) == -1) {
                         LOG(PIL_CRIT
                         ,       "Error setting socket option"
                         " SO_BINDTODEVICE(r) on %s: %s"
                         ,       i.ifr_name, strerror(errno));
                         close(sockfd);
                         return(-1);
                 }
                 if (ANYDEBUG) {
                         LOG(PIL_DEBUG
                         ,       "SO_BINDTODEVICE(r) set for device %s"
                         ,       i.ifr_name);
                 }
         }
#endif

And, if this code is disabled, I can't start more than one read process 
because it knows the port is already bound to.  So, I think the code is 
likely working.

I couldn't tell... Do you think it's working or not?
