If the client specifies a port that is below 1024 but canonically used for
something else, what is the specified behavior?  My reading of the thread
so far is that the server would expect to run ACME over it, even if were
specified for, say, LDAP (389).

Just to get this on the record, I think that we should have some advice
that suggests a set of ports (other than 1024+) that are off-limits. I note
that browsers are unwilling to connect to certain ports because of the
concerns you allude to, we can recommend that the CA policy do the same
(and be advised by the experience of browsers here). 389 is on that list,
25 probably too.

I can try to find the list that Firefox uses if people think that is good
advice to include.
