I do not believe that the registry table format allows us to express
well the difference between the RTCP-mux case and the non-RTCP-mux
case.  I believe that we should add RFC 5761 as the *primary*
reference for this registry.  As a conservative choice, the PTs 64-95
can be marked as "reserved"; the careful reader of RFC 5761 can tell
that in the non-RTCP-mux case, there is no danger that the endpoints
will confuse those PTs with RTCP packets.
