Please repost this as part of a series that needs non-static
inet_parse().  I'm worried parameter "block" will cause trouble, but I
can't see that without the users.

Separate patch, please.

You can use two of them, like this:

    a_end = b_end = -1;
    sscanf(str, "%d%n:%d%n", &a, &a_end, &b, &b_end);
    if (b_end >= 0) ...
