s1 = socket(..., SOCK_DGRAM, ...);
s2 = socket(..., SOCK_DGRAM, ...);
connect(s1, ...);
connect(s2, ...);

The kernel is free to use the same local endpoint for those two sockets 
as long as the remote endpoint is different.

If you really want to force reusing the same local endpoint, you do the 
SO_REUSEADDR+bind() dance before calling connect().
