            Bug ID: 36794
           Summary: Illegitimate modification of biblionumber subfield
                    content (999 $c)

It happens that librarians, by mistake, open a biblio editor putting in the
URL, by hand, the biblionumber prefixed with a blank (e.g.
.../addbiblio.pl?biblionumber= 123 -- mind the space before 123). In such a
case the editor opens with the right biblio record (i.e. 123) but, after saving
the record, the content of the biblionumber MARC field (999 $c for a standard
MARC 21 installation) results modified and contains additional initial blanks.

Moreover, while using ES and making a search for the record (with title, author
etc.) we get two records on the result list (instead of one). 

This is because in the addbiblio.pl script $biblionumber is taken (and
continuously used) directly from CGI parameter, without any validation and/or
correction.
