Fine by me, but addresses that are too long should be suspicious (to
catch people obfuscating by doing things like 000000000000000127.0.0.1
and similar).  That's what I was intending to catch with the {} things
without having to actually do the hard maths myself.  :-)

And as Andreas said, I had forgotten that IPv6 addresses can contain
dots, so if you could fix that at the same time...
