How about 

<para>An output port may have more than one binding: it may be
connected to more than one input port, more than one of it's
container's output ports, or both. At runtime this will result in
distinct copies of the output.
</para>

Separately, I'm noodling about what to do about the overlapping
meanings of "binding" in our spec :-(
