Nope it's not correct. The correct behavior is for this to work.
(localhost was hardcoded into the connect string, this was okay when

No, since the code was sort of mutually exclusive. But the new code
support IPv4 and IPv6 strings as well as hostnames.

Yep, I allready did that, unfortunately I throw the code away, but I
think I can reproduce it if you will need it.
