Thanks for replying and filing the bug report. I guess usually what
happens is somebody reports that something is not working and somebody 
later fixes or finds the bug and adds the links as comment. Then it all
works fine. In my case I only filed the bug report when I already had
the solution hence the links were already in the description. So your
comment in the bug report that the bug description needs to be parsed
the same way as the comments is the solution.

Thanks again,
Karoly
