Milestone:  Boost 1.40.0          |   Component:  asio          
  Version:  Boost 1.39.0          |    Severity:  Problem       
 Keywords:  asio,%11,ipv6         |  
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 I've noticed a bug in Windows 7 where I connect to a server and I print
 the client's ipv6 address to a log message.  The string address that is
 returned from the following function always has a %11 at the end:

 address_v6.hpp:124

   /// Get the address as a string.
   std::string to_string() const
   {
     boost::system::error_code ec;
     std::string addr = to_string(ec);
     boost::asio::detail::throw_error(ec);
     return addr;
   }

 Example return value: fe80::8ced:2b49:90d5:7c3b%11
