It's half of the client half/part of a cookie.  I would also suggest
not just accepting responses without the option but rather fall back
to port randomisation.

We were planning to switch back to a fixed port.  The only question
was for the first query and retry with a random port if one didn't
get the cookie option in a reply or to only send using the fixed
port when you know that cookies are supported by the server.  The
choice of which strategy to employ is really dependent on the uptake
of cookie support in servers.

At 50%+ deployment the first strategy should give the greatest
benefit.  Before that the second strategy should be the winning
one.
