Reproduced. :)

I didn't patch the file with your proposed change, instead, I backported
the patch that Ville mentioned in his reply.

It also works with the backport. :)

I added a similar entry to my ~/.ssh/known_hosts, then tried to
complete with:
$ ssh XXX[TAB]
$ ssh XXXX:YYYY:ZZZZ:100::1
Unless I did not understand your concern, I think it works as
expected. So, I'll go ahead and backport the patch for the next
version of Debian's bash-completion.
