So, got some time for this again. The good news, the patch will work like expected and even support the definition of the listening address. Some working examples (changed IPv6 address for reason):
beowulf@:~/fossil$ ./fossil server -P 34cd::ab12:1234:a12b:12ab:1ab2:34cd:3cd4:8889 ../fossil.fossil beowulf@:~/fossil$ lsof -i | grep fossil fossil 15912 beowulf 3u IPv6 714135 0t0 TCP [34cd::ab12:1234:a12b:12ab:1ab2:34cd:3cd4]:8889 (LISTEN) beowulf@:~/fossil$ ./fossil server -P 192.168.1.127:8889 ../fossil.fossil beowulf@:~/fossil$ lsof -i | grep fossil fossil 15915 beowulf 3u IPv6 707482 0t0 TCP 192.168.1.127:8889 (LISTEN) beowulf@:~/fossil$ ./fossil server -P 8889 ../fossil.fossil beowulf@:~/fossil$ lsof -i | grep fossil fossil 15918 beowulf 3u IPv6 715424 0t0 TCP *:8889 (LISTEN) As you can see, ipv6 addresses are not taken in the url-notation but just as pure as ipv4 addresses. The code from @drh takes simply the last set of digits till the last colon in the input-string as port - works good enough, I think.
