Good.

I just installed a change to format-network-address, so you can now 
omit the port number from the result string.  

You may thus simplify your code like this (format-network-address
returns nil if the address is nil):

(defun erc-dcc-get-host (proc)
  (let ((sockaddr (plist-get (process-contact erc-process t) :local)))
     (format-network-address sockaddr t)))
