There is a most certainly a long and winding bug about it.  Was filed
and close many years ago.

It's just one of those problems can can't be fixed unless other software
(i.e. the rpc portmapper) wants to accept a fix, which I don't think it
does.  Ideally one should be able to blacklist ports from the
portmapper, but one cannot.
