I assume that there are braces around the else block that are not
posted.  A similar construct is in the server program.  If socket()
fails, you'll get the perror then it'll set the sin6_family and so on,
leaving the sin6_port unset.

I caught the same thing.  It looks like the braces I pointed out above
have been fixed here.
