BUG MIGRATED FROM SOURCEFORGE

In Wikipedia, a single-bracketed link in an article will incorrectly
appear with a space inserted after it in the article text. See 'http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP', which has lots of single-
bracketed links. Here are some examples:

This [http://foo.com/ link in single brackets], blah blah

becomes: This link in single brackets , blah blah

(This footnote [http://foo.com/])

becomes: (This footnote [1] )

Blah blah [http://foo.com/]; blah blah

becomes: Blah blah [2] ; blah blah

This problem appears to have been fixed in cvs.

This is caused by tidy. If wgUseTidy is "false", the page is
rendered correctly.

This is already fixed in newest CVS.

Actually, it's also fixed in REL1_3 CVS, it seems.

It is not fixed. I can observe this bug even after the recent engine update.

I opened a ticket for tidy, and this is the response:

This is by design and you should not do that, see the last
paragraph of http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/text.html#h-
9.1 -- you can use different means to achieve what you
want, you can use   instead of a space, for example.

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=390966&aid=1094093&group_id=27659

So I added a   where the space used to be.

That sf.net bug seems to me to be a different issue. Is this fixed or not?

(In reply to comment #6)
The three test cases are working correctly on en.wikipedia.org and
meta.wikimedia.org (v1.4.5) and test.leuksman.com (v1.5alpha2). If this is
broken elsewhere, please provide details.
