Yes, I thought about the more-descriptive debug message, but since getaddrinfo()
accepts both numeric "3493" and /etc/service string values (i.e. "nut") for
Servname values, it would be non-trivial to parse the input values with an
isdigit or isascii routine just to fully flag it.

I do think the addition of a "check LISTEN IP and port values in upsd.conf" may
be the easy improvement. Or just "check LISTEN values in upsd.conf"

Now back to chasing down how to fix upsdrvctl so it can work out of the box
again ;-)
