Description:
------------
Session ID keys are tacked onto some links on the site. This breaks the download links, such as:

http://us3.php.net/get/php-4.3.2.tar.bz2/from/a/mirror?PHPSESSID=6153afccf3cd37f81c6c895474fafce2
http://us3.php.net/get/php-4.3.2.tar.bz2/from/this/mirror?PHPSESSID=7d4d58af0f590ab7a7d9e770e6022755

which result in a documentation search for everything after the hostname.

removing the session ID from the link manually provides working links:
http://us3.php.net/get/php-4.3.2.tar.bz2/from/a/mirror
http://us3.php.net/get/php-4.3.2.tar.bz2/from/this/mirror

I'm on this.

OK, I have added code to remove the QUERY_STRING part of the URL when handling these shortcuts. It will be online in a few hours on all mirrors, and so we will be able to see if it works correctly.

OK, my fix seems to work...
