 Hello,

 I was using Fossil in Haiku, and noticed that its web interface via
 `fossil ui` no longer works in Web+.  (Note that `fossil ui` automatically
 launches Web+ after it is entered in the terminal.)

 I get the following error dialog box when running `fossil ui` from the
 command line...

 Error loading http://localhost:8080/doc/tip/www/index.wiki:

 Connection refused


 If I run `fossil ui --port 80`, then it works perfectly.  Any port other
 than 80 results in the "connection refused" error message.  Qupzilla loads
 the URL just fine regardless of the port, so it only affects Web+.  Also,
 using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost does not at all remedy the problem,
 as I tried that as well to be thorough.

 Steps to reproduce:

 $ pkgman install fossil
 $ mkdir repos fossil
 $ cd repos
 $ fossil clone http://fossil-scm.org fossil.fsl
 $ cd ../fossil
 $ fossil open ../repos/fossil.fsl
 $ fossil ui


 Please note this is a GCC2 hybrid build, hrev47571, running HaikuWebKit
 1.4.1-3.

 (The About window for Web+ needs updated, as it mentions HaikuWebKit 1.4.0
 still.)
