--------------------------+-----------------------------
 When installing Wordpress (3.6.1) on a server accessed via an IPv6
 address, Wordpress will not record the root URL properly. It will strip
 the '[]' brackets from the URL.

 For example, this can be tested quickly on a localhost using http://[::1]/
 - although Wordpress will install succesfully, all the links including
 CSS, scripts, etc. will not work because their URL will be
 http://::1/some/link instead of http://[::1]/some/link
