Don't have an answer for you, but I can say that the following URL works
under FF-8.0

http://0x12.0x12.0x12.0x12/

(resolves to 18.18.18.18)

However, if you force browsers through a squid proxy, squid-2.6 at least
treats that as borked and won't play with it.

So even proxies are out of step with FF. Don't care if it's "right",
there's no need for any browser to accept crap like that :-(

It's probably "safe" to have a rule to score such urls - except when
they're http://0x12.0x12.com/ or the like!
