> When HttpClient is set to follow redirects, the DefaultRedirectHandler gets 
> the redirect location from the appropriate request header and attempts to 
> create a new java.net.URI from it. If the location contains an invalid URI 
> character, creating the URI fails. For example, if the redirect location were 
> "/foo?bar=<baz/>", it would fail because the '<' and '>' are not legal in a 
> URI.
> I'm not sure if this should actually be considered a bug in HttpClient, since 
> the website in question should probably be responsible for encoding the URI 
> appropriately; however, browsers handle the situation gracefully, and it 
> would be nice if this excellent library would do so as well.
