[issue5111] httplib: wrong Host header when connecting to IPv6 litteral URL
Guillaume Desmottes <gdesmott@gnome.org> added the comment:

Actually, this bug is present when you try to connect to any URL
containing an IP6 and a port.

So, we have the same problem when using, for example:
http = httplib.HTTPConnection('[2a01:8790:16d:0:218:de87:164:8745]:5555')

but
http = httplib.HTTPConnection('[2001:4860:0:1001::68]:80')

does work. Probably because we use the default HTTP port.
