A couple of minor comments below. In general, I find it better to
structure the code so that you end up with less indentation, and
unneeded else clauses, etc...

			   ^^^^ this is rather awkward since you now have 2 copies of each address comparison per family. If you compare the address before checking for the port then this function will be slightly more efficient and will look cleaner.

The same comments apply to the IPv6 stanza here too.
