For compatibility purposes I have added support to OpenPGM revision 745.  It
basically ignores any leading and trailing square brackets.  So you can now
use the following form:

pgmrecv -n "[fe80::230:1bff:feb7:a209%eth0];[ff08::1]"

I'm following the BNF in RFC2732 such that only IPv6 literal addresses may
have surrounding square brackets (revision 746).
