--- Comment #5 from Rich Felker <bugdal at aerifal dot cx> ---
POSIX contains the note "A more extensive description of the standard
representations of IPv6 addresses can be found in RFC 2373." as part of the
normative description of inet_pton. So I think it's reasonable to conclude that
normative requirements on the format from RFC 2373 are intended to apply to
POSIX.
