Summary: URL with IPv6 address can't be accessed

Initial Comment:
My test set has eth0/1 interfaces configured on different IPv6 subnets
Test client uses curl to access IPv6 in different from it's own subnet trough proxy.

When trying to access URL like https:://[fc00:1:2::5:6:b]:8443/testsrv/index.php 

All addresses and URLs - are my local internal use services, but it seems like problem is not related to exact service or privoxy configuration

[root@sh5 ~]# curl -v -g -k "https://[fc00:1:2::5:6:b]:8443/enterprise/control/agent.php"

Message:
Thanks a lot for the report.

I confirmed that Privoxy doesn't properly deal with the request, but with
FEATURE_IPV6_SUPPORT the error message I get is "HTTP/1.1 503 Connect
failed". This difference might be due to GNU libc vs. FreeBSD's libc.

While testing this, I also found a related bug with CONNECT requests to
::1.

Potential fixes (only briefly tested) for both issues are attached, please
given them a try.

Looks privoxy resolve IPv6 address like it was domain name. Anyway it looks
weird.
