I don't think that'd be a problem, I don't think an IPv6
address followed with a port number is ambiguous and sslh
just separates the port from the address by using the last
':'.

That's a good point -- I guess you'd expect sslh to bind
both addresses if the hostname resolved to two addresses?
I'll look into that. (that's exactly the kind of feedback
I'm looking for: real-world IPv6 setups).

ok, "something" is behaving differently between FreeBSD and
Linux; I can reproduce it, so debugging shouldn't be too
hard. Hopefully I'll have a fix soon.
