Hi Michael,
Thank you for your feeedback! The apidoc will clearly explain the
difference in parsing methods and the set of ambiguous arguments.

Hi,
I think this could be a useful addition. The apidoc would need to be
clear about the differences from the existing literal parsing method
and any implications for ambiguity between octal and decimal formats
spelled out.

It is suggested to add a new factory method such as
|.ofPosixLiteral()| to |Inet4Address| class to fill this gap. This
won't introduce ambiguity into the API and won't break the long
standing behavior. As a new method, it will not affect Java utilities
such as HttpClient, nor the existing Java applications. At the same
time, the new method will help dealing with confusion between BSD and
Java standards.
