Previously values greater than 255 were implicitly truncated. Add some stricter checking to reject addresses with components >255.
With the input "1234192.168.1.1" the old behaviour would truncate the address to 192.168.1.1. New behaviour rejects the string outright and returns 0.0.0.0, which for the purposes of IP addresses can be considered an error.

One unintended side effect of this is that is breaks parsing of things like 'tftpboot 192.168.1.1:zImage'. I'll fix that in the next round.
