IMO it would be best to use the lexically first m-line that has a 
non-zero port and that appears in the bundle group of the answer.

Alternately, it *could* be the m-line with non-zero port that appears 
first in the bundle group of the answer. But if so, the exception in 1.2 
would also need to be correspondingly adjusted.

AFAICT the only reason to mention that exception in 1.2 is that might 
provide an opportunity for optimization, by setting up the port with 
simpler code that doesn't support bundling. I don't see a requirement in 
5888 that the bundle group in the answer be ordered the same way as in 
the offer. So the one m-line guaranteed not to receive bundled traffic 
would then not be predictable at the time of the offer, so could not be 
exploited. This problem doesn't exist if the lexical ordering of m-lines 
is used.
