I’m curious what the result of gethostbyaddr() is in your case, Silent Ghost.

import socket
socket.gethostbyaddr("::1q")
socket.gethostbyaddr("::1::2")
socket.gethostbyaddr("1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1")

On my computer, I get “socket.gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not known” 
from each call.

Perhaps this is similar to the problems encountered with test_bad_address() at 
Lib/test/test_urllibnet.py:102
