The attached patch adds the following features to Drupal HEAD:


- Setting Access Permissions by referrer.


The attached patch fixes the following bugs:


- Port numbers on same domain cause Drupal to mark an external referrer



This patch changes the following modules, by function:


- user.module
-- user_admin_access_check Now allows checking based on referrer.
-- _user_admin_access_form Now has options for banning based on
referrer.
-- user_admin_access Now lists referrer bans.
-- user_help Show referrer banning in documentation.
- bootstrap.inc
-- _drupal_bootstrap Checks to ensure user is not banned by referrer.
- statistics.module
-- statistics_top_referrers Has "quick-links" for banning referring
domain.  Fixes port issue.


I have tested this module and it works correctly on Drupal HEAD.
