[cups.bugs] [MOD] STR #1713: "Allow" with ipv6 addresses are not working

[tpeland.tkukoulu]

[STR New]

Ipv6 addresses don't work in Allow rules without the patch.
After the patch it seems to work correctly. Here are some test cases.

valid - Allow [2001:998:11::]/64
valid - Allow [2001:998:11:0:0:0:0:0]/48
fails - Allow 2001:998:11::/64
valid - Allow 10.1.2.0/25

The third example fails on purpose.

Actually it might be good idea to rewrite the function to use
getaddrinfo(,,AI_NUMERICHOST,) in systems that have ipv6 support. The
configure script already checks for the existence of that function.
