That should do it....

Upstream reviewed a previous version of this patch (some of it comes from their CVS repository, but they only did TID randomization, not source port randomization). This version addresses their comment, but I haven't heard back from them on it.

I tested this on Dapper (which has a kernel that does not randomize ports) and captured DNS data using ethereal and observed that the source port and TID changed in an apparently random fashion each time.
