    Description

      When the TCP bind() fails, sun throws a fairly unhelpful BindException:

      Caused by: java.net.BindException: Address already in use
        at sun.nio.ch.Net.bind0(Native Method)
        at sun.nio.ch.Net.bind(Net.java:437)
        at sun.nio.ch.Net.bind(Net.java:429)
        at sun.nio.ch.ServerSocketChannelImpl.bind(ServerSocketChannelImpl.java:223)
        at sun.nio.ch.ServerSocketAdaptor.bind(ServerSocketAdaptor.java:74)
        at org.xnio.nio.NioXnioWorker.createTcpConnectionServer(NioXnioWorker.java:180)
        at org.xnio.XnioWorker.createStreamConnectionServer(XnioWorker.java:243)

      .. that does not include the InetSocketAddress that's being bound to. It would be really helpful to catch this exception and produce a more helpful error message.
