This got me looking in the right direction. You can control which ports
this secondary connection is on through the simple use of clamd.conf.
Specifically, the StreamMinPort and StramMaxPort options.

This might not even be an issue in the future, since the INSTREAM command is
supported by modern clamd.

Thanks for the help; sorry for the noise.
