Here is an updated version of the patch

Good job, Sean. I have committed something similar in r29686.

I found that the problem also existed when using -g or --source-port,
which causes a completely different probe matching algorithm to be used.
I found that the code to make it work correctly was already mostly in
place, but that we were allowing mismatched probes to match because of
another bug that I think has now been fixed. So the spurious closed port
problem is solved in r29689.
