Bug#217819: debbugs: funny URL on attachement: bugreport.cgi/<filename>?bug=nnnnn&msg=x&att=y

[Julian Gilbey <jdg@debian.org>]

Package: debbugs
Version: as of today
Severity: minor

Have a look at: http://bugs.debian.org/206768, the final attachment
has a URL of:
[<a href="bugreport.cgi//home/ernie/uupdate.patch?bug=206768&amp;msg=3&amp;att=1">/home/ernie/uupdate.patch</a> (text/plain, attachment)]

Is there any reason why the filename is included in the URL after the
"bugreport.cgi"?  (I'm sure there is, it just confused an automatic
parser I was using.)

   Julian
