But the first reference I found (a few days ago) seems to have disappeared: it ID'd a certain country as the perp.

There may be legit applications that use the port, but ...

Can you say more why it's believed to be a trojan?

If they're unix boxes, it may simply be an X11 server. How big a problem it is for that to be listening (it can be a very big deal) depends on the configuration.
