Description
It appears bit.ly URLs, provided by !url-alias, are being posted like this:
(http://bit.ly/jStOa
...and the full URL ends up being this:
http://www.domain.com/node/123)
The ) ends up being part of the href="", which of course generates a malformed URL, which then causes a 404 on the Drupal site.
I've looked through the module code but haven't identified where this is happening. Also, I would expect something as obvious as this to have been reported by now, but after searching I didn't find this report, so I apologize if this is a duplicate.
It appears !tinyurl is not affected.
