+1. The ${readsocket expansion item now supports Internet domain sockets as well
+   as Unix domain sockets. If the first argument begins "inet:", it must be of
+   the form "inet:host:port". The port is mandatory; it may be a number or the
+   name of a TCP port in /etc/services. The host may be a name, or it may be an
+   IP address. An ip address may optionally be enclosed in square brackets.
+   This is best for IPv6 addresses. For example:
+
+     ${readsocket{inet:[::1]:1234}{<request data>}...
+
+   Only a single host name may be given, but if looking it up yield more than
+   one IP address, they are each tried in turn until a connection is made. Once
+   a connection has been made, the behaviour is as for ${readsocket with a Unix
+   domain socket.
