This is usually seen when some memory issue occurs, e.g. due to more source 
code being loaded now. You can try to increase the PHP memory limit in 
LocalSettings.php (where requirements above 50M are unusual even if you use 
normal-sized queries; I found it needed on some wikis that create very 
long/broad result tables but basic operation should usually work with 20M).

This is strange and could hint at a URL encoding problem. Can you reproduce 
the problem on sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org? The code for Special_Ask was 
recently extended by Yaron, so maybe he has an idea if this could be related.

I am aware of the bug, and I think it is not impossible to address (especially 
we do have a better query result architecture now that can do smarter things 
at printout time). But implementing it will be some work as it requires an 
extension not only in the result retrieval, but also in the parsing of query 
parameters and in the data structures that represent print requests for 
queries.
