The builder carries a binding because at genesis nothing provides
`package-registry` to resolve one from; once the forge is a module the same
consumer is told what the forge serves. Nothing held the two to the same number,
so the catalogue could drift into dialling one port before the forge is assigned
and another after.
And `at` is now protected, for the reason it had to be: a setting that moves it
points the builder, and the registry password it sends, at a host somebody else
chose.

The package registry was the one foundation port not resolved from what its
module serves. Nothing in the controller had to change for it — `ports` on the
forge moves its container, what it serves and what consumers are told, and the
builder's carried binding is settable like any other mergeable file — but
nothing said so, which is how it came to be special in the first place.
Two tests over the catalogue's own manifests: the forge's port is given on a
node and reaches what it serves, and the builder's carried binding takes the
port from the node while keeping who the binding is with.
