Well, a reluctant yes. I've been enjoying the notation of '127.1' (and
it's hardcoded to several scripts of mine).
This is actually a hard decision; from the compatibility point of view
inet_aton should allow non-standard forms, but from the standard's point
of view it shouldn't. I'd rather leave this to the current trend (of
which I don't have the vaguest idea).

Eugene
