OK, fixed in hobbitd so it looks up the BBPORT setting instead of
defaulting to 1984.

If you set BBDISPLAYS, then the tools that generate status-messages -
i.e. bbtest-net, bbcombotest, bb-infocolumn, bb-larrdcolumn - will
send those messages to all of the BB- or Hobbit-servers running on
those adresses you put in BBDISPLAYS.

If you do use it, then you must also set BBDISP to "0.0.0.0"

That is the way BB behaves, and Hobbit follows that.
