Comment(by nickm):

 Looks mostly good!

 I'd be a little more comfortable if the IPv6 address tested were not
 simply 8000::  -- that's enough of a special form that it makes me a
 little nervous about the correctness of other cases.  How about 8000::abcd
 ?

 On the documentation: "Return the number of chars printed" isn't correct;
 no characters are printed by this function.  Instead, something "return
 the number of characters written to <b>out</b>'" would be more accurate.

 Quick git note: this isn't mergeable as-is, since it includes a re-merge
 of master into the branch, and also includes the common_misc branch, and
 also includes your #4434 fix.  Generally, it's best to avoid unnecessary
 back-merges from a main branch into a topic branch , and to have each
 topic branch do only one thing so they can be merged independently.
