Details

I today tried to subscribe to the planet ubuntu feed in Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.10pre) Gecko/20100322 SeaMonkey/2.0.5pre - When doing so from the browser (clicking on Subscribe Now), it never does anything. When I go to MailNews and add the feed manually, it gets stuck on "verifying 
feed", and generates the following error:
Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI) [nsIStandardURL.init]" nsresult: "0x804b000a (NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://messenger-newsblog/content/FeedItem.js :: anonymous :: line 58" data: no]

Haven't yet tested on trunk, nor in Thunderbird.
we should somehow catch that NS_ERROR_MALFORMED_URI and not get stuck on it...
It's choking on urn:md5:9163063fe883869e750a0bfc5e7cd11b - it assumes that all guids that are permalinks are standard URLs.
fix in bug 606818.
