postman.ncube.com!dlc (Dan Clark) noticed that announcing with a system
name to UDP (or TCP) results in an error. When announcing on tcp and
udp, use the sytem name '*' as in announce("udp!*!666, dir).
Other networks like datakit allow you to specify a system
name but not a port, ...
He also noticed that udp channels have no listen. Part of this is because
UDP isn't really a connection oriented protocol. However, given how we
handle it anyways, that's no excuse. Listen would have worked. We just
got lazy because we only use udp for a couple of things.
