Yet another quirk; many legacy core functions do not support PV
arguments, because they hark back to the days before PVs existed. :-)

Just use the request URI to guide the request:

$rd = "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx";
$rp = 5060;

forward();

Like t_relay(), by default, forward() will consume the RURI for
routing on the network and transport level as well.
