Bug in IPv6 ABNF

Hi,


The IPv6 ABNF was not supporting the following compressed form 

::10.18.5.97


IPV6 ABNF


IPv6reference  =  "[" IPv6address "]"
IPv6address    =  hexpart [ ":" IPv4address ]
hexpart        =  hexseq / hexseq "::" [ hexseq ] / "::" [ hexseq ]
hexseq         =  hex4 *( ":" hex4)
hex4           =  1*4HEXDIG
port           =  1*DIGIT



so the CORRECTED ABNF could be 

IPv6reference  =  "[" IPv6address "]"
IPv6address    =  ( hexpart [ ":" IPv4address ] ) / ( "::" IPv4address )
hexpart        =  hexseq / hexseq "::" [ hexseq ] / "::" [ hexseq ]
hexseq         =  hex4 *( ":" hex4)
hex4           =  1*4HEXDIG
