I'm not saying that it is not a bug, but phpMyAdmin does way more than
exporting data, so even if it is completely broken the software is
still usable for most users.

Just to make it clear: The "Export" tab on the query results does not
work for you? It does not go to export page? If this is the case, then
there must be something wrong with your setup because it works
perfectly for me.

Does the same happen for you at phpMyAdmin demo server
<http://demo.phpmyadmin.net/QA_3_3/> (login as root with empty
password)?
