I have more information about the bug. The host I'm running this on is called "tor' (no, it has nothing to do with an onion router, its an old nickname and something I've been calling my main dev host for years). Its IP is 10.16.0.5. If I designate the command line option as "-vnc tor:11,websocket=5711" or "-vnc 10.16.0.5:11,websocket=5711" it appears to work fine.

I have to include the specific IP I wish it to listen on because this host has a lot of different interfaces, and I don't want it listening on all interfaces. So there's still an issue with it resolving the "short" name in local dns to the local IP, and listening only on that IP with the abbreviated option. It's still not parsed correctly.

On another host, with much fewer interfaces and addresses, a simple "-vnc :80,websocket" works fine without modification. Same version of Qemu, the ArchLinux x86_64 package for 2.3.0-2.
