[issue35019] Minor Bug found in asyncio - Python 3.5.3

[Ken Bassford]

New submission from Ken Bassford <kenbassford at verizon.net>:

Found that when using the following function ...

"asyncio.start_server(self.processCmd, serverhost, serverport, loop=self.loop)"

If 'serverhost' is formatted as a ipaddress.IPv4Address() it will cause a very messy failure.

Formatting 'serverhost' as a string eliminates the problem, though I suspect that asyncio developers would/should accept IPv4/IPv6 objects, in addition to strings, as the host parameter.
