Description:
------------
I believe this happened in commit "f0f68c72744a42a1c376a832dd01c012c0929e88". The reason I am considering this a bug is that it broke expected behavior in a minor version change.

Test script:
---------------
var_dump(parse_url('mysql://username:xxx#xxx@localhost/databasename'));

Expected result:
----------------
array(5) { ["scheme"]=> string(5) "mysql" ["host"]=> string(9) "localhost" ["user"]=> string(8) "username" ["pass"]=> string(7) "xxx#xxx" ["path"]=> string(13) "/databasename" } 


Actual result:
--------------
FALSE

Allowing # like that was a bug - security bug, no less - which is why it was fixed. You should be urlencode()ing the password.
