Package: vim
Version: 1:7.1.314-3+b1
Severity: normal

Hello! Seems like fetching debian bts attachment urls with vim has
stopped working... 

Command:
vim 'http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=10;filename=nmu.diff;att=1;bug=484881'

Output:
:!curl -o '/tmp/v783828/1.diff\;att=1\;bug=484881' 'http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-b
in/bugreport.cgi\?msg=10\;filename=nmu.diff\;att=1\;bug=484881'
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
"/tmp/v783828/1.diff;att=1;bug=484881" [New File]
Press ENTER or type command to continue

Notice that both the url string is inside '' and the semicolons are escaped....
