In Twisted 2.0 there's a flag to listenMulticast that lets you do this.
Also look in my sandbox for some prelim zeroconf code (enough to be able

On Linux there seems to be a movement to standardize on the howl
mdnsresponder, but that'll take a while. Probably you want your mdns
library to use system version if available, otherwise its own.
