That is not what this message means.
The message means that an attempt is being made to bind to a port that is already in use on THIS system. Most probably that an attempt is being made to start a daemon the is already running, in this case the 'talk' daemon, or that some application is started and bound to a port it shouldn't be.

NAME
in.talkd, talkd - server for talk program
SYNOPSIS
in.talkd
DESCRIPTION
talkd is a server used by the talk(1) program. It listens at the UDP port indicated in the ``talk'' service description; see services(4).
The actual conversation takes place on a TCP connection that is established by negotiation between the two machines involved.
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

NOTES
The protocol is architecture dependent.
The in.talkd service is managed by the service management facility, smf(5), under the service identifier:
svc:/network/talk
Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). Responsibil-
ity for initiating and restarting this service is delegated to inetd(1M). Use inetadm(1M) to make configuration changes and to view config-
uration information for this service. The service's status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
