I have been able to work around the problem for my particular case.
However, I think it's still not-good that there is some input for
which bibtex generates incorrect output.

If you look at the other messages that have been sent regarding this
bug, you'll see that it can be produced without using any sort of
hyperref/url stuff (which is just a red herring).  It occurs anytime a
\% is included in the input exactly where bibtex tries to break the
line.

I agree, but that's not really something I have control over ;)
