Update:
This morning it was 70% of the URLs that managed to escape the SC parser
in this same way.  When all the spammers catch on and the level is 100%
will that make this bug a higher priority?
I no longer do multiple refreshes "in the hopes" of SC eventually catching
the URL. I simply skip on to the next piece of spam. Those reporting in
bulk probably never notice this bug.
