Tell me WHY?!?!

;open_network_connection(@{"some.address.to.some.moo", 7824});
=> E_INVARG
;open_network_connection("some.address.to.some.moo",7824);
=> #-231

;{@{"some.address.to.some.moo", 7824}}
=> {"some.address.to.some.moo",7824}
;{"some.address.to.some.moo",7824}
=> {"some.address.to.some.moo",7824}

I tried the first example (which ALWAYS results in E_INVARG), several times,
and it never worked... I tried the second example, (Which ALWAYS resulted in
a successful connection), and it always worked.  WTF?!  Is this a bug?
