It no longer looks like an issue related to set_reply_no_connect() or
set_forward_no_connect() added by the commit you referenced. Those were
added to prevent attempting to connect to devices behind the nat (in
that case the device has to maintain the connection, otherwise nobody
can connect back to it) as well as prevent someone in the wild sending a
request then closing the connection, without waiting for the reply,
which is typically routed back to via, commonly with an ephemeral port.
The follow up commit I did it in master recently is no longer setting
the flag for requests within dialog, but I understand you have
connection problems for requests within dialog, am I right?
Cheers,
Daniel

Am I correct in thinking that it would be undesirable to maintain a TCP/TLS
connection to an upstream TLS gateway that is using the well-known port 5061?
I was thinking this may be a case for TCP_REUSEPORT and force_send_socket, but
that seems a little complex seeing as I can just let Kamailio reconnect (when
necessary) rather than preventing the outbound TLS from connecting when it
would otherwise succeed.
I'll try and work through more detailed configuration scenarios. -A
