[erlang-questions] httpc broke URL parsing in OTP-21.0?

[Roger Lipscombe]

20.3...

1> inets:start().
ok
2> httpc:request(get,
{"http://localhost:31316/EluoueLg-ueL/?x=32&y=54&z[0]=1&z[1]=2&q[]=5&q[]=4&p=9&p=8",
[]}, [], []).
{error,{failed_connect,[{to_address,{"localhost",31316}},
                        {inet,[inet],econnrefused}]}}

...fair enough (no server is running).

21.0...

1> inets:start().
ok
2> httpc:request(get,
{"http://localhost:31316/EluoueLg-ueL/?x=32&y=54&z[0]=1&z[1]=2&q[]=5&q[]=4&p=9&p=8",
[]}, [], []).
** exception error: no function clause matching
uri_string:parse({error,invalid_uri,":"}) (uri_string.erl, line 337)
     in function  httpc:request/5 (httpc.erl, line 179)

Not good :(

Cheers,
Roger.
