This works on OS X but not on Windows: void main() { import std.net.curl; // neither work (IPv6 addresses, no DNS needed): get("http://[::1]:8080/"); get("http://[2a00:1450:4004:801::200e]/"); } Error: "std.net.curl.CurlException@std\net\curl.d(3705): Couldn't resolve host name on handle 1D80048"

The bundled libcurl.dll lacks IPv6 features? curl_DLL_ONLY.7z/nossl/libcurl.dll from http://www.paehl.com/open_source/?CURL_7.44.0 looks fine: std.net.curl.CurlException@std\net\curl.d(3705): Couldn't connect to server on handle 16B0048 With http://[2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7]/, i.e. www.kame.net, it works well.

Yeah, a proper curl DLL with all the good features should be provided with DMD. (In any case, I would argue that no curl version should mistake an IPv6 address for a host name, even if support for processing IPv6 requests is not included; the current behavior is really misleading)
