Change everything to use the cached virtPort rather than created their own each time.

This appears to work, but I don't want to commit it until it gets tested a lot more.
I haven't deleted the functionality in this patch that will come later, but one question
is how to enforce encourage objects that call getVirtPort() to not cache the virtual port
since if the CPU changes out from under them it will be worse than useless. Perhaps a null
function like delVirtPort() is still useful in that case.
