Well, my SGI's /etc/services contains the entry:

#sgi-directoryserver    5136/udp                # SGI Directory Server

It's probably commented out since it's not a registered IANA port
number.  I'd guess that they re-used 224.0.1.2 for the directory
service since it was already assigned and they didn't want to get
another address.
