I also just upgraded from Dapper to Hardy, and am experiencing this.
Long URLs only get their first line recognized.  Oddly, sometimes it
works fine.  If I paste a long URL into vi or the command line, the
whole thing is recognized.  If I cat a file with a long URL, the whole
thing is recognized.  But viewing an email message within mutt, it is
not.  (Could it have something to do with curses, or an application
doing a single write(2) containing the whole URL?)

I think it's better to err on the side of recognizing too much, since
it's more rare for a URL to end exactly at a line boundary than it is
for one to be arbitrarily longer.
