I think I've opened bugs about mozilla mishandling IPv6 URLs five years
or so ago. Maybe it's worthwhile doing this again, they are likely
forgotten. Just make sure you cite the relevant RFCs. I'm not sure how
much good it does to file it in our BZ, the upstream one is probably better.
# ping6 ::1 == ok
# ping6 fe80::216:cbff:fea3:7629 == no
That's a link-local address. From strace I see that the interface
number is not filled in to the liking of the kernel and the connect()
syscall fails. Should be worth filing a bug. It might be a kernel
issue but file it against ping6 for now.
# ssh fe80::216:cbff:fea3:7629%eth0 == ok
# ssh fe80::216:cbff:fea3:7629 == invalid argument
Likely the same issue as for ping6.
