Ah, right. I did do a conversion to using getaddrinfo a few years ago for IPv6 support, but I believe it was only tested with hostnames (not many IPv6 hosts out there then). > Reference is RFC3986 / STD66 "Uniform Resource Identifier (URI): Generic > Syntax" > > host = IP-literal / IPv4address / reg-name > IP-literal = "[" ( IPv6address / IPvFuture ) "]" > IPvFuture = "v" 1*HEXDIG "." 1*( unreserved / sub-delims / ":" ) > > In practice, I just check for something in square brackets and take that > as the host portion; a more paranoid check would validate at least the > character set of the enclosed contents and do something other than treat > it as a normal hostname. I think that is okay. We treat IPv4 addresses as hostnames as well, so at least this is consistent. Thanks for the patch. I've applied it with a few minor changes and it'll be in the next release.
