I know my patch for links-2.2 did not work properly.

Rebase to 2.3 was easy, but then I spent a lot of time reviewing it line per
line and finding any discrepancies. I think I fixed all of them now.
I performed a lot of tests with domain names, numeric addresses, with port,
without port, over SSL, with link local addresses, over HTTP proxy, in pass=
ive
and in active FTP mode, with IPv6 only servers, with IPv4 only server, with
dual-stacked server. And all of them work for me with patch
(links-2.3-ipv6-2.diff.gz) advertized in this thread.

I'm able to reproduce the reported bug with Debian patch. I can confirm it
does not exhibit with my patch. Just try it!

Maybe you want to hear how to fix links-2.2. I think easier solution is to
back-port the 2.3 patch. However if you insisted on pure bug-fixing patch,
I could send you git patch set of all my changes in links-2.3. It's not one
big commit :)
