Steps to reproduce:

On the release notes for SeaMonkey 2.53.6 at https://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.53.6/, under "Known Issues", there is a link to bug 1684651 (text "The scrollbar is not always visible on some websites under recent macOS versions (10.15 upwards) see bug 1684651.")

The href attribute on the "bug 1684651" anchor is missing the opening quote, leading to the closing quote being interpreted as part of the URL and giving a broken link to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1684651%22. Fairly minor and easy enough to work around by removing "%22" (displayed as a quote in the address bar) for those who realise what's happened, but I figured it'd probably be good to correct for future releases if that issue is likely to still need to be mentioned.

Actual results:

"bug 1684651" link opened https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1684651%22

Expected results:

"bug 1684651" link should open https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1684651
