Hi.
Nice little script.
I improved your script to support ports other than 80. Additionally you should use CRLF as Line-Terminator due to a security-fix in apache2.
Unfortunately i can only access github via browser i cannot send a pull request (did not work from here, seemingly) so i can only send the lines via Issue:
burl() {
shopt -s extquote
export LC_ALL=C
unset headers_read
host=${1%%/*}
path=${1#*/}
port=${host#*:}
host=${host%%:*}
[[ $path == $host ]] && path=""
[[ $port == $host ]] && port="80"
exec 3<>/dev/tcp/${host}/${port}
printf "GET /${path} HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: ${host}\r\nUser-Agent: bURL/Bash ${BASH_VERSION}\r\n\r\n" >&3

Hi, thank you for your interest in my ridiculous script :)
I've implemented support for alternative HTTP port using option -p <port>
