Research direction

Start by reproducing the connection attempt against an IPv6 server and trace the library's hostname resolution and socket-connection entry point. The issue names no files or tests, so locate the relevant connection code and add coverage for an IPv6 address; done means the connection no longer raises gaierror(-9).
