Test script: --------------- <?php echo phpversion(); if (defined('AF_INET6')) echo "\r\nAF_INET6 defined. "; echo "\r\n".inet_ntop(inet_pton('127.0.0.1')); echo "\r\n".inet_ntop(inet_pton('::1')); ?> Expected result: ---------------- 5.4.0 AF_INET6 defined. 127.0.0.1 ::1 Actual result: -------------- 5.4.0 AF_INET6 defined. 127.0.0.1 Warning: inet_pton(): Unrecognized address ::1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63711&edit=1
