Michael Felt <aixto...@felt.demon.nl> added the comment:
I may be mistaken, but I do not think the change introduced a regression.
While it is true that this case would not have appeared if there was
still a count of the field-separators an IPv6 address with 5 ':' and 17
characters would have failed as well. The value being examined is based
on it's position, and previously the additional assumption is that
whatever is in that position is a MACADDR if it uses the system
separator ('.' on AIX, ':' elsewhere).
If anyone is interested I will think about what are assumptions are - is
this a value we should be considering, or not.
IMHO - while issue39991 is resolved - I am not -yet- convinced that the
"root cause" has been identified and properly coded
