The 5433/4 numbers could get assigned at any minute, too. That doesn't
mean they'd suddenly be likely to be in use on your site, though. Most
of the protocols with recently-assigned numbers are pretty dang obscure.
Still, I'd lean to using one of the port numbers above 49k. If you have
a conflict, at least no one can accuse you of ignoring published specs.
