Section 6.1.1 says:

     If the authority component contains a domain name and a port number,
     e.g.,

        soap.beep://stockquoteserver.example.com:1026

     then the DNS is queried for the A Resource Records corresponding to
     the domain name, and the port number is used directly.

     If the authority component contains a domain name and no port number,
     e.g.,

         soap.beep://stockquoteserver.example.com

     the Service Record algorithm [11] is used with a service parameter of
     "soap-beep" and a protocol parameter of "tcp" to determine the IP/TCP
     addressing information.  If no appropriate SRV RRs are found (e.g.,
     for "_soap-beep._tcp.stockquoteserver.example.com"), then the DNS is
     queried for the A RRs corresponding to the domain name and the port
     number used is assigned by the IANA for the registration in Section
     8.4.

It should say:

     If the authority component contains a domain name and a port number,
     e.g.,

       	soap.beep://stockquoteserver.example.com:1026

     then the DNS is queried for the Address Records (i.e. "A" for
     IPv4, "AAAA" for IPv6 based on the host resolver specifications) 
     corresponding to the domain name, and the port number is used directly.

     If the authority component contains a domain name and no port number,
     e.g.,

           soap.beep://stockquoteserver.example.com

     the Service Record algorithm [11] is used with a service parameter of
     "soap-beep" and a protocol parameter of "tcp" to determine the IP/TCP
     addressing information.  If no appropriate SRV RRs are found (e.g.,
     for "_soap-beep._tcp.stockquoteserver.example.com"), then the DNS is
     queried for the Address RRs corresponding to the domain name     
     and the port number used is assigned by the IANA for the registration
     in Section 8.4.
