Possibly but if you search on status "any" for keywords "bad redirect 
url" you get the one bug report which I raised. I can now confirm that 
it has been fixed, so yours could be a slightly different bug.

Obviously it's important to put a sensible title on the bug report 
when you raise it, so that it can be searched for without having to 
trawl through five or six pages of bugs. That's not always possible - 
for example a random crash with no obvious cause. Thankfully these are 
getting fairly infrequent now.
