I think instead of ignoring it we can just produce an error.  The user
might have meant to specify a port, but forgotten.  I've done similar
things before.

I generally prefer being a bit stricter and giving helpful error
messages rather than trying to intuit what the user meant.  The user is
always going to come up with a new way to break the code.
