Well tinc determines from which other daemon it receives messages by
looking at the source address/port. You could change node_udp_compare()
in src/node.c and disregard the source port, but I don't know if it
would still work. For tinc 2.0 we will probably change the protocol a
lot and "fix" this issue.
