No, it really is looking for actual control characters. The regular expression in question will match if it sees a string which starts with 'http://' then features a control character (ascii <= 0x1f except CR and LF) before it sees another '/'. Now on the line in question, it will in fact match a little wrong (it doesn't notice the end of the first URL), but there still shouldn't be any control characters in there...

If there were really control characters in one of these urls, I'd sorta expect them to show up as I am composing this message in vim. Hmm, perhaps it is geeing overly greedy about what constitutesa url, and thinks it's all one big url with the whitespace being the "control characters"?
