I was able to reproduce the glitch inside an uxterm (at at least two different terminal sizes) when searching for ".html" in the source of my own homepage http://axel.beckert.ch/ when the string href="https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/maintainer/a/[email protected]" was displayed as href="https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/maintainer/a/[email protected]" ^^^^^ It seems to happen only at two of a dozen search hits inside the source code, i.e. you might need to scroll around to see it. I can reproduce this issue in Debian 8 Jessie as well as in Debian Unstable. Hence Cc'ing upstream as it's present in the current upstream development release, too.
