For that, perhaps

-ssh: Could not resolve hostname xxxx:: nodename nor servname provided, or not 
known
+ssh: Could not resolve hostname "xxxx:": nodename nor servname provided, or 
not known

would be something we would want to do, no matter what other fixes
we would apply.

If it is not too much hassle to make the current code do so, I'd say
that is a good way forward.  Giving a warning that lets the user
know that the input has an extra and unwanted colon in it may be a
plus, too.

Thanks.
