Ok, but why does Trac use the #L25 as revision 25 instead of ignoring
the wrong format? And using an URL like
http://trac.edgewall.org/browser/trunk/COPYING#L10 does work. So why
not supporting #L25 in wiki links?

You could also say: "You need to specify the revision number, as
otherwise the meaning of a
file name might vary over time.

I already found the workaround of @head#L25. I just wanted to know if
taking #L25 as a revision number instead of a line number in my sample
was a bug, since I expected it to be either an invalid link or a link
to the file's line number in HEAD.

I know, but I wanted to fix it after the Trac 0.11 and Subversion 1.5
release since I am only a part-time admin of our internal developer
team server, and this server is working fine as it is now.
