The only way to run HTTP on port 8080 in Xitami at present, is to set
the "port base" to 8000; which shifts _everything_ up by 8000.  So FTP
becomes 8021.  As a hack you can move FTP back down by giving it a
negative value (== 21-8000 = 7979).

Adding a better way of just moving the HTTP service is on our todo list.
