I committed the code to make -p set the listen port. I also made it an
error if you try to give more than one port, like
        ncat -l 80 443
        ncat -l -p 80 443
I don't know what to print as a warning. "You don't need the -p with
Ncat"? It makes me think of Google's "Save time by hitting the return
key instead of clicking on the search button."

On a related note, while the topic is open: are there any other places that ncat and nc diverge that could potentially cause incompatibilities?
