This is a case where a line of documentation could save a lot of people a lot of trouble. Anyone have a clone of network handy that they could make a pull request from?

I might be mistaken, but is there a bug in the Show instance of PortNum?

Not a bug, an annoying misdesign (IMO). A PortNum is actually in network byte order. If you extract it, you get the original port; if you simply show it, you see it byteswapped on little-endian platforms.
