I would say that if true, than this is desired behavior and not a bug.
I would even go so far as to say that sending HTTP_REFERER would be
considered a major bug by alot of people. As the comment admits, it is
a horrible security system, and sending HTTP_REFERER serves no
legitamate purpose besides allowing the site to collect information
about my browsing habits which I would rather keep private...
