Listen with IP address, no port, uses first octet as port

           Summary: Listen with IP address, no port, uses first octet as
                    port
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: rbowen@apache.org


If Listen is used with an argument of an IP address, with no port, then this
argument is interpreted by taking the first octet as the port number.

For example:

Listen 127.0.0.1

Apache will start up and bind to port 127.

Note that this is when Listen is used in the absence of Port and BindAddress
directives, which the documentation say are deprecated.

2.0.x gives an error message on this configuration, saying that a port number is
required.
