Summary: IP6 address parsing i sgmllib

Initial Comment:
The sgmllib.attrfind regex excludes [ and ].

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2732.txt uses these in the 
host portion to indicate that an address is IP6 rather 
than IP4.  

http://[1080::8:800:200C:417A]/foo

RFC 2732 is referenced as normative by the xml:base 
module.  I grouped the issue as 2.3, on the assumption 
that it isn't a bug until IP6 is used.
