You might also want to take a look at [1] which suggests that when doing SRV lookups for URLs they should be done regardless of whether or not a port number is present (which then eliminates the RFC 3986 issue the current SRV lookup code has). It's only a draft (and expired now and looks like it received a rather chilly reception from some), but I haven't noticed anything else that addresses what the patch code is trying to do. The thread at [2] is related to what the patch is trying to do.
